Kyoto and tattoos, in one minute

Real hot spring inside Kyoto city is rare; the onsen are out at Arashiyama and at Yunohana in Kameoka, while the centre is business-hotel large baths. The chain hotels are the ones that answer in writing — one states its restriction has been abolished, another refuses the main bath and sends you to its five free private baths — and every Arashiyama and Yunohana ryokan we checked publishes nothing either way.
