ReviewSuper smooth water (美人湯) that leaves your skin slippery smooth and a giant rooftop rotenburo, you can't do much better than that. This is a very popular bath in an area with not much competition so it's often busy. The changing room is small and crowded and there isn't much room in the lobby to sit around after your bath. Those are only two small complaints. This is a quality supersento and worth taking the drive, or easy bus ride to experience. The large city park neighboring the bath is also fun to explore and has great sakura in the spring.

Review: This is a city-run sento with one main bath with a bubble section. There is a sauna, but it is closed because of COVID. The cold-water basin is for rinsing off ONLY. No getting in. They have a fence covering most of the basin to stop people from getting in. I can only guess what led to this being installed. Overall, this is an excellent public works type place and will be helpful if there is a disaster. I wonder why only this neighborhood gets a community bath. Fascinating customers here also. Three guys were discussing the glory days of Just Music in the changing room when I got there. Hahahaha.

Review: A little to say about this sento. Not all of the sento I review here have to be slam dunks. They advertise that the water is from an 80m deep well, but it did not have any noticeable feel. The facilities, fixtures, and tiles could be taken care of better, but the water seemed clean and properly sanitized. This is especially true for the cold water bath. The best bath here was the bubbling laying down bath with some unadvertised herbal treatment.
There's a beer vending machine in the changing room and a few fish tanks!
More so than the baths, the location right next to JR Takatsuki makes this bathhouse one to remember for an easy-access soak but not one to go out of your way to visit.
Tattoos seem to be OK.

Review: Seeing the poorly lit entrance I was afraid for another depressing experience, but that thankfully did not happen. These are dark days dealing with the trudging through the fields of COVID-19 malaise, but a bright clean happy sento can make everything better… and help get rid of the kink in your shoulder. There is a popular steam sauna here that can fit about 4 people. Typically, it is a bit rude to put your feet up on the bench but we all do it. Here you have to do it as the heat coming from under the benches is pretty unbearable. Since all the locals had their feet up or were sitting cross-legged, I followed suit and spent most of my time here just chilling in the steam. The cold-water bath was a perfect complement along with the hot kakari basin. There are also a great selection of baths and some jets which were high enough to get up to your shoulders. There is a mermaid on the glass separating the baths from the changing room and a garden behind the windows on the back wall. Lovely sento. Highly recommended. Visit Date: February 2021

Review:Went here after a hike. Not too far from the station. Big, relaxing changing room. This is one of the sento that helped the people of the area after the gas and power was cut due to the earthquake of summer 2018. Sento are an important part of daily life and help speed recovery after a disaster. I very much enjoyed my bath here and recommend you all check this one out if you are in the area.
