The communal bath is open from check-in until 11 p.m., and again from 6 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. the next morning. Under local regulations, children of elementary school age and older are asked to refrain from mixed bathing, so the private-hire bath is the option for bathing together with an elementary school child.
