Ryokans with beds

Some ryokans actually do have beds including the top-end Ryokans in Yufuin (see Tamanoyu @ http://www.tamanoyu.co.jp/webpage/english.html) a spa town that was mentioned in an earlier post.

It's actually easy enough to get to Yufuin by plane. Oita Airport is only 1½ hours flight from Tokyo (10 flights a day) and probably wouldn't cost to much to add on a sector to a flight from the States or Europe.
