I also visited solely for the hot water, and was led to a spacious room lined with massage beds.

Massage Room 02

Since there were no customers, I was told that I could use this space as a changing room and luggage storage area.

Quite generous.

The original changing room was a narrow space next to the private tubs, separated by curtains.

Massive Flow

There were several tubs inside the building, all of which were for private use.

The price for this type was $30.00 for two people (at the time of writing).

Hot Tub 2 01

As expected of a spa, plenty of cold water and clean towels were also included in the service.

Hot Tub 2 02

In a dimly lit room with only one small window, there was a stepped tub.

The decor was modest, creating an environment perfect for enjoying a leisurely soak.

The amount of fresh water added to the tub was enormous compared to its size, making it fresh.

The water temp was 104 degrees F.

The water was colorless and odorless, and had a salty taste.
