Color: very faintly yellow and clear

Odor: with a hydrogen sulfide odor

Aches & jointsstiff shoulders
Smooth skindry, rough skin
Recoveryfatigue, stress

A weakly alkaline simple thermal spring (pH 8.06, source 49.8 C) — gentle in composition, soft on the skin, yet not boring: the water carries a very faint yellow tint and a whiff of hydrogen sulfide that gives it more character than most simple springs. Lifted at 500 L/min from a drilled, powered well. Listed indications cover the usual simple-spring range — neuralgia, muscle and joint pain, frozen shoulder, post-illness recovery, fatigue relief.

About

Ikkyu runs two full bathhouses, Ki-no-yu (木の湯) and Ishi-no-yu (石の湯), that swap between the men's and women's sides on alternating days, so every bath type is open to everyone eventually. All the tubs run on natural onsen water: a sit-down bath, an electric bath, a fine-bubble carbonated bath, jet baths, and a charcoal-filtered cold plunge indoors, then a jar bath, a medicinal bath, a waterfall bath, an open-air rock bath, a hot bath and a salt steam sauna outside. It's a big, well-worn day-use bathhouse in Konohana Ward's harbor district rather than a resort, with a Japanese-Western-Chinese restaurant, a barber, a relaxation salon, tatami rest areas on two floors, and free parking for about 150 cars. Families and regulars fill the place, some stopping by after a day at nearby Universal Studios Japan.

311. Kamigata Hot Spring Ikkyu, Osaka Super sento with natural hot spring water in the USJ area, 35-50 minutes from Osaka station for 850. Operating hours listed as 10:00-24:00 (except Tue). They stamp the 41 Kansai Super Sento stamp rally 24/25. Has a restaurant, massage, barber shop, and chill zone. Two different bath sets that rotate between M/F — Ki-no-yu and Ishi-no-yu; I visited the second one — review is based on that. Bath photos from the internet, partially match — in the evening the water was less brown and more greenish. Bath set Ishi-no-yu: 1. Outdoor area. 1.1. First main bath. Clear water, brownish-greenish tint in the evening. Temperature around 40-41. 1.2. Second main bath. Clear water, brownish-greenish tint in the evening. Temperature around 41-42. 1.3. Two barrel baths, water same as main baths. Temperature around 42. 1.4. Two crater-shaped barrel baths with bubbles, clear water with a greenish tint, temperature around 42. 1.5. Large red spherical steam bath, like something out of an anime. 2. Indoor area. 2.1. Main bath, clear water with a greenish tint, temperature around 41. 2.2. Carbonated bath, clear water with a greenish tint, temperature around 39. 2.3. Sauna. 2.4. Cold bath. 2.5. Four electric baths. Great place — the crater barrels, unusual steam bath facade, interesting water. Plus the baths rotate M/F, it's relatively close, and you can combine it with USJ. Recommended for a visit.
