Sagami Shimokuzawa Onsen Yuranosato

Really beautiful establishment. On top of it being a public bath, it has a restaurant, massage chairs, massage service, food, vending machines, nap area. Everything you need to pamper yourself.

Pros:

• amenities
• indoor & outdoor bath
• multiple types of pools/baths inside
• cleanliness and professionalism
• 100 yen lockers for personal belongings
• restaurant food

Cons:

• very crowded on the weekends
• if you are a foreigner, be prepared to be stared at the entire time you are in the bath by other dudes (didn't bother me, I expected it)
• people will get out of the pool or not even join if you are inside the bath as a foreigner (again, didn't bother me because I expected and understood japanese perceptions of foreigners)
• it is tailored to japanese, so little to zero English.

Overall I had a wonderful experience, be prepared to be judged and just let it roll off your back and enjoy the experience. The establishment is top quality, the locals are what made it lose 1 star. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
