Looks like a cool place to stay...it's just a little over $50 a night to stay. The baths are communal but the rooms look so much better than the other place with with private baths.

The three sacred mountains I was telling you about are know as "Dewa Senzan" and the three mountains are Haguro-san, Yudono-san and Gas-san. The BUMMER is that Yudono and Gas' trails are closed around autumn through the next early part of summer since the winters in this region are severe. So if this is what we end up wanting to do we need to think about going in October. Haguro is open all year round since it's not nearly as high as the other two. The five tier pagoda is here as well as the steps. This alone is supposedly worth going there but it would be cool to do the whole journey.
Here's a link that explains the "experience" although I just would want to do the hike. ;)
