I used it on the first day. I was still unaccustomed to the tension and tired legs, but the spacious bath was soothing. In the morning, we had a delicious meal while talking with other pilgrims in the attached dining room. I thought about where to stay, but there were many signs along the way, so I called and made a reservation, thinking it must be famous. The staff at the inn are polite and kind, and I can recommend this inn.
“The bath starts at 5pm.” etc
