We stayed at Kinmonco twice, and loved it both times. It's a short taxi ride to the ryokan, tucked away from the main area, but if you're looking for a quiet and beautiful place to stay this is the place. The food was excellent, and our little villa had its own hot spring but the family hot springs were good too. Our only regret is that we didn't stay longer, and if we visit Yufuin in the future we will definitely stay here again.
