Thank you for your helpI avoid the time when there are many university students (18:00-21:00) as it is often noisy.There are signs all over the place for silent bathing, and the staff members often say hello to me, but I wonder if it's because I'm young or I'm just an idiot who can't read.

The service is good and the food is delicious, but there are times when people who appear to be men are sleeping in the women-only area. I would like to see more patrols and calls.

Sacred place of the west Yu Lux.It was great to experience the deep water bath and the waterfall-like water bath. Aufguth is also fun.

It was a place with the best facilities and services among all the bathhouses I've been to. This place has a bathhouse, a comic book room, a restaurant, and a capsule hotel, and the quality was all good, let me tell you one by one.1. Bathing: I was impressed by the events held in the wet sauna every hour, and the provision of pola shampoo/rinse/body and mud packs in the bath, as well as high-quality equipment such as a Dyson dryer.2. Cartoons: I'm Korean, so I couldn't read comics, but there were so many that they filled one wall.3. Restaurant: There were many dishes to eat while drinking beer, and I had curry udon and it was quite delicious!4. Capsule Hotel: Except for the fact that you couldn't leave large suitcases (instead, you left them at the counter on the first floor), it was very clean, comfortable, and nice.I should have planned my trip to spend a long time at the bathhouse, but I think it was too short. There is so much to do in the bathhouse.

It's interesting that there are courses only for hotel guests. There is also a sense of cleanliness.The sound of footsteps is surprisingly noticeable. There is no problem if you use the earplugs provided with the amenities.Bringing in food is prohibited. The truth is that there isn't much variety on the menu for what you want to eat.
