    Interview with Sakaeyu (Ishida)
    What part of your baths or facilities are you most proud of?
    We use well water and soften it, so it is gentle on both your body and hair.
    What do you especially want first-time visitors to enjoy here?
    There are plenty of chairs in the changing rooms and lobby, so you can relax.
    Are there seasonal or time-of-day ways to enjoy this place?
    The men's and women's baths are switched every Saturday, so you can enjoy different baths every week.
    Why do regulars keep coming back, in your opinion?
    I think it's because it's clean and easy to use, so the number of regulars is increasing and it's a great place to socialize.

    Interview with Atamiyu (Yoshida)
    What part of your baths or facilities are you most proud of?
    This retro public bathhouse is built in the style of a palace, and features a painted picture of Mt. Fuji. The tiled landscape paintings and high ceilings make it a very comfortable experience!
    What do you especially want first-time visitors to enjoy here?
    The binchotan charcoal bath is mellow and very warming.
    Any history or unique commitment about this bathhouse we should know?
    This public bathhouse has been in this area since before the war and is a 70-year-old building.
    Are there seasonal or time-of-day ways to enjoy this place?
    It's a public bath with a ticket counter. Many people come empty-handed, take a bath, and then go out for a drink.
    Why do regulars keep coming back, in your opinion?
    It's a little warm and clean.
