The bath
What you’ll find
A tiny, old-fashioned neighborhood sento (public bathhouse, not a natural spring) in a converted old house in Ota, with a single small heated tub using bath-salt additives, evening-only hours, cash-only 300 yen entry, and a regular-only, evening-only crowd of elderly locals.
