A nice place to relax. We have a good time here!

This place is huge! I had 2 hours and it wasn't enough if you want to properly enjoy everything.

The onsen was crowded. You charge ...

It is a facility which you have hot spring, sauna, steam room, massage, Internet cafe all together. There are a lot of young couples due to the location. After bath you can have a dinner. The meals are not bad. It will be closed 1-2am depends on the day and restaurant will be closed 11:30pm. *if you have a tattoo, not allowed to enter….* Due to make fierce to other people that you might be YAKUZA.

The saunas (2) are pretty nice. For ¥800, it's ok. Also has a nice lounge spot for relaxing after your bath. H...
