Kanji in this phrase

お風呂: おふろ
何時まで: なんじまで

Why this phrase

Kofuku checks in at a mountain ryokan in peak autumn-foliage season; Hana runs the desk, machine-gun politeness, yukata and tea included. The one question that matters at check-in is not Wi-Fi, it's bath hours: outdoor baths and big sento-style rotas close early and flip to cleaning. The takeaway is お風呂は何時までですか, and the bonus system is the two-bath rota: big bath men/women swap overnight, so ask for tonight AND tomorrow.
