About

Tejimaya is an older inn in the town of Urasa that also takes day visitors. The open-air bath is kept pleasantly lukewarm and the water runs rust-brown with a faint metallic smell, so it can stain towels yellow; the inn lends a towel at the door. The indoor bath is set a little hotter and the colour is filtered out of it. There is also a foot bath outside. People who like a long, slow soak tend to rate it well, while those after hot water find it too mild. The building is dated but kept clean, and it is a surprise to find water like this in the middle of town.
