The rooms in the main building all include private western-style toilets, but baths are shared by all the guests. They are divided by gender, and there are indoor and outdoor pools. If you prefer your privacy, it is possible to use the bath by yourself between 9 pm and 8 am by placing an “occupied” sign on the door. There are also smaller, indoor bathing facilities with locks.

Kiyoshigekan is about a 10 minute walk from the bus station, and also from the downtown area of Kusatsu Onsen. Though it is not as centrally located, the welcoming atmosphere and reasonable rates make it a good choice for a foreign visitor to the town.  It is a 15  minute walk from Sainokawara Park and a 10-minute drive from Kusatsu International Ski Centre.
