Answer

ANo.1 You can use paid public baths called sento if you do not have a bathroom in your home. Sento has separate rooms for males and females, each consisting of a big common tub and large washing space. When using sento, you must bring towels, soaps and other amenities for yourself (wash-basins are provided). Sharing a common tub with other people, you must always wash your body first before soaking, so that everyone can feel comfortable bathing. Available times and fees can vary slightly depending on the establishment. Usually they are open from around 15:00 to 23:00, with the fee around 400 yen for one adult. In some places called "super sento" and "kenko rando (health spa)," fees can be higher (somewhere around 800-2000 yen) as they have more facilities such as variety tubs and saunas. People with tattoos are not admitted in most of these places.
