The square-planned changing room of the men’s section, entered by descending three steps from road level through a round-arched door, is covered with a dome. The cold section on the western side is entered through a door forming a large niche narrowing with stepped muqarnas. Inside, one passes through a pointed-arched door into the corridor, and through the door in the south wall of the corridor into the cold section. The square-planned hot section at the end of the cold section has been enlarged with two large Bursa-arched niches on its west and north sides. There are private cells on the east side and in the southwest corner. The roof and dome tiles of the bath, which was restored in the recent past, have been completely renewed.
