Review:Large sento with a good selection of baths. Seems to be very popular with the locals. Lots of fresh air and outdoor light make this quality sento.

Review:Great selection of baths including a small outdoor one. It has all the bases covered. Electric bath does that thing where it cycles through all the different patterns which I can imagine some people like. Located in a neighborhood with a Muslim community. I really want to try the Pakistani restaurant here

Review:Very simple sento but there are some great tiles and the marble is superb. Very interesting fountain filled basin for the kakeyu. Good option in the area.

It was a long time ago and then I decided against listing this place because I couldn't remember much about it. Second floor entrance is nice. Baths are basic. The full body shower and outdoor bath are both out of order. It's a bit dark in the baths but clean. Lots of little decorations and posters all about. It feels like going into a private residence more than a sento. Nothing worth going here on purpose but it's close to the station. Visit Date: June 2019

Japanese Name: 野里の湯Prefecture: OsakaCity: Nishiyodogawa WardAddress: 大阪府大阪市西淀川区野里２丁目２２−３０Closest Station: Tsukamoto Station / 塚本駅Category: Sento w/ natural hot springPrice: Osaka Prefecture Public Bathhouse Association price or cheaper (sauna, if available, may be extra)Holiday: TuesdayHours: 14:00-25:00 (Sunday 9:00-25:00)Review:This sento was remodeled in 2017 (I think...) and a hot spring well was put in. The lovely rock lined spring bath in the back of the bathing area is great. But the normal baths including the steam sauna really make this stand out as a quality sento. Quite popular with the locals and the changing room is a bit small so it can get crowded really fast. Also if you peek into the building next door to the left of the entrance you can see the hot water furnaces going if the doors are open.
Update Nov 2020: Still a great option. Parking lot has gotten bigger. Added the hot spring data.

Review:I chose the wrong day to go to this sento for the first time. It was the hottest day of the year. 38 degrees in Osaka is sweltering and my shirt was soaked with sweat. Sadly, I did not bring a spare. It would not matter much if I did. Anything I wore after getting out of the bath would be instantly drenched anyhow. This was also one of the few sento that does not have a cold water bath. I did not know that before coming so I had to make the most of it. This is a small sento but it is well laid out. Shallow, deep, bubble and electric baths plus a steam sauna. Thankfully, on this hot day especially, there is a cool shower. I think I spent most of my time under that shower on my visit. Any other day this would be a perfect little neighborhood sento. It is right on a perfect little neighborhood park. I could imagine taking my daughter to the park there then going the sento before going home if I lived in this neighborhood.Tiles are normal and uninspired but the place itself is very friendly and has a relaxing atmosphere. Recommended if you are in the area and it is not the hottest day of the year. Visit Date: August 2019

Review: This sento looks a bit intimidating from the outside as some of the signs are not lit. However, once you pass through the noren, you can feel a kind welcome. The shoe locker area was carefully decorated, and the lady working the bandai was kind. The bath and I mean singular bath, is also very simple. A single tub along the rear wall with four divisions: bubble/jet, deep, shallow, and electric. Despite the simplicity, I enjoyed it partly because the bath is well treated with salts, filling the room with a relaxing fragrance. No cold-water bath, but the tap water kakari basin works well enough. Nice place.
