"That New Wing thing in Nerima. Bonus of Spirit and Time" KANTO's artificial hot spring generator, made using raw mineral deposits from Futamata Onsen, a famous hot spring located upstream of the Futamata River in Oshamanbe, Hokkaido. (Commonly known as the New Wing thing.) Also featured: a Guncannon-style shoulder massage bath. The chain is still intact. The sauna room juts out toward the changing room, offering a view through a small window. Apparently, the scale is right in front of the window, so I sometimes make eye contact with the old man, which is awkward. The stove is a bong and quite mild. There's a constant rumbling noise from the entrance, and the faint sounds of buckets and water can be heard in the distance. The sauna room is isolated from the outside world. By the way, apparently you can take a rest just beyond the emergency exit.

As other reviewers have mentioned, the old man at the front desk was rude. He seemed hard of hearing, and it was frustrating for those who had to ask him to repeat himself. He's not cut out for customer service. The female attendant, on the other hand, was nice, so the old man stood out. I felt the way he treated me was so unreasonable that I quickly washed up and left without getting in the bath. At the end of the day, I was left wondering why I'd even gone there. They're closed on Mondays and Fridays, and if Monday or Friday falls on a public holiday, they're closed the following day. (They shift their closure to Tuesday or Saturday.) This is probably why they're closed despite listing it as open on Google. I asked because I didn't know, but it's unfortunate. I recommend going to Fuji no Yu in Miharadai, even though it's a little further away.

This public bathhouse is located near Toei Bridge on the left bank of the Shirako River. The entrance has been renovated in a Showa-era modern style, but the interior is a typical palace-style bath. It has two square bathtubs, one deep and one shallow, and an L-shaped cold bath in the front. The deep bath has a super jet, and the morning bath has a seated bath and shoulder bath, equipped with a Hokkaido Futamata Onsen device (the same as the one at Heiwa in Nakamura Minami 3, Nerima Ward), and there's also a sauna. The back wall features a waterfall tile painting, and there are 20 shower faucets and two standing showers, making it a valuable place with a complete set of amenities. I was the only other customer, so I enjoyed stretching in the bath and alternating between the bath and the cold bath.

I'm never going there again. Is this a police matter? I don't want to waste my energy, so I'm just warning you here. They're supposed to close at 10:30pm, but I left a little after 10pm and was in the changing room when the elderly male manager came into the bathroom to dress me up. I was drying my hair and had just gotten out of the bath, so I was in my underwear. I never imagined he would come in. It's just plain disgusting, unbelievable. The receptionist was arrogant and rude, and the customers have bad manners too. I recommend not going there.
