Before climbing mount Fuji, I went to Izu peninsula for a couple days. This time, I had decided not to be cheap and stay only at higher end places than I had done so far (even though Amihari onsen was great!), that is only ryokan above 15000yen (150 dollars) per night. In a ryokan, rooms are Japanese style, with tatami floor. Also, diner and breakfast are usually served in the room, and that's really cool!
Based upon the Lonely planet recommendation, I went to Kanaya ryokan for my first night, in a small countryside town.
The main bath was huge:

But there was something about the atmosphere of the room. I don't know what, but I just didn't feel totally comfortable. So I just spent one night there, and then I headed towards Shimoda!
