Bathroom: yes • Water: yes
Really nice hot pools in a wide, beautiful valley.
Camping area is the parking lot.
Paths and pools are full of uneven rocks so it's difficult to walk on the former and you're always banging your shins in the latter, but the water is really nice.
Has a smoking pool - a pool where you may smoke ciggies while you soak! Disgusting, but kinda cool!
Notes on each visit (posted cost • senior cost):
The place is organized very oddly. Clothing optional in the pool area, but clothing required to get from the entrance door down the hallway to the showers.
There is one very hot pool, possibly hotter than the hot pool at Harbin.
There is a smoking pool!
That is, a pool where smokers are allowed to smoke in the pool...crazy!
