Brooklyn Bathhouse

Nestled in a vibrant neighborhood, this bathhouse spa offers an intimate and welcoming atmosphere that feels like stepping into a cozy local gem. Upon entry, you're greeted with fluffy towels, robes, slippers, and even a lock with a bracelet. The facilities are well-designed with separate locker rooms for men and women, but the coed saunas create a relaxed communal vibe. Despite its modest size, it houses a variety of pools—ranging from cold plunges to tepid baths and hot pools. The steam room is an essential feature, though some find its operation inconsistent, occasionally giving off an unpleasant odor that can be off-putting. The dry sauna and tropical heat room also offer varying experiences, sometimes feeling underheated or poorly ventilated. The space exudes charm with its DIY aesthetic, making it feel familiar and comforting despite a few quirks in functionality.
