Great experience! There's a variety of different baths and a sauna, and the old lady was very nice and helpful. Definitely going back!

They have cool shirts and it’s a simple and reasonably priced sento with 3 hot baths, 1 cold one and a steam sauna. Tattoo friendly. Make sure you look up what to do at a sento if you’re foreign, because it’s just a regular place. You can rent a small towel, big towel, soap and shampoo combo for cheap otherwise bring this

Local experience. Pretty basic sento. I’ve been to a couple other bath houses throughout Japan and this is pretty on par with any other local one. Its nothing special… the steamroom wasn’t hot enough for me, it was about 27C. They have 3 different hot baths, a cold bath, and showers. There’s no outside area to cool off or to take a dip, but thats okay. Went around 6pm and it was mostly seniors. If you’re looking for a place to relax and bath its a good spot, but again, doesn’t really stand out. I’d give it 3.5 if I could. - canadian backpacker

Simple, friendly public bath in a lovely area. I went on a weekday night around 9 pm and it was full of local people chatting while they bathed, but still had plenty of room in the baths. Women's bath is on the left as you go in (to the left of the ticket machine) and they have a short introduction to batting etiquette in a booklet next to the machine. 2 points if you, like me, are new to this: 1. Go in the first door. There's a room with lockers, hair dryers, a desk where the owner takes your ticket, etc. Disrobe in this room and put your things in a locker (free). Then you go through another for info the bathing area. 2. If you're (a) nearsighted and (b) unsure about bathing nude with strangers, try taking your glasses off. Works a treat. 🙂

Friendly and lovely medium size sento (public bath / onsen). Very clean, decor is a little dated. I checked and tattoos were ok (as far as I could understand, and as confirmed below. Note I only have one medium size one on my leg). On a Wednesday evening 8.30pm less than ten people were there. Walk in and put your shoes in a locker, press the vending machine to get an entry ticket. 490 yen basic entry, 590 yen for entry plus big and little towel, soap and shampoo. The women’s entry was on the left (this may change) behind red curtains. There were 2 spa pools, one still hot pool, one herb red pool, one cold pool and steam room. Ran by two lovely older ladies possibly in their 70s or 80s. Lockers for your stuff is free. Lovely.
