【Crowd Level】
It was late, so neither the sauna room nor the bath was crowded.
【Amenities】
Shampoo, conditioner, and body soap are available. There's also a cold water dispenser at the entrance to the bath. Towels are included if you choose the free plan.
【Impressions】
Visited by car on 5/5 during Golden Week.
After parking the car, I entered through the noren curtain.
I sanitized my hands, had my temperature checked, placed my shoes in a shoebox, and took the key to the reception.
I chose the free plan at the reception, so I received a towel and indoor clothes.
I changed and stored my belongings in the men's locker, then went to the bath.
First, I washed my body, dried off with a towel, and then went to the sauna.
The radium sauna felt spacious and seemed to accommodate about 15 people.
I sat on the top of the three tiers, and it was quite hot.
The indoor thermometer read 102°C.
After about 8 minutes, I took a shower to rinse off the sweat and then went to the cold bath.
There were six chairs in front of the cold bath and two more in a separate area.
It might be hard to find a seat when it's crowded.
After completing three sets, I left the bath, put on my indoor clothes, and went for a massage.
I had a 90-minute oil massage, which I had booked in advance.
You can choose from lavender, rose, or citrus oils.
It had been a while since my last massage, so it helped relieve a lot of tension.
After the massage, I did one more set in the sauna, washed up, and finished.
I enjoyed about four hours, and including the massage, it cost less than 10,000 yen. Considering the prices in Tokyo, I think it was a good value.
There was a cute face-in-hole board at the entrance.
