📋 About This Mod
This mod was created from Aukmat's wonderful INN Storage (LE / SE), modified and adapted to a different purpose. All credit to Aukmaut for the original idea and execution. Be sure to check out that mod if you want a little player home inside a storage room :)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This mod adds a dialogue option to innkeepers allowing you to purchase access to a hot bath. Unlike other mods that add bathing rooms, this does not contain any cell edits to inns, ensuring maximum compatibility without the need for patches.
Upon paying the 10 gold fee, the player is teleported to a small, no-frills back room where a bath has been freshly drawn up for you.
As of 1. 2, there is an optional version which provides the bath for free.
The same bathing room is shared across every inn; consequently, I tried to keep it plain enough that it could be a spare storage cellar anywhere. It's intentionally simple: no luxury spas 'round here.
NOTES:
-
[]The bathing cell and the items in it are unowned, so you could technically take everything without "stealing". I didn't want to set ownership to anyone in particular since the same cell is used for every inn. And there's nothing of value in there anyway. If you really want to steal the barkeep's old trousers, you do you :)

[]The cell IS now navmeshed (as of 1. 1), but followers still do not teleport to the new cell with you. This was inherited from the original and isn't something I know how to change, sorry! I navmeshed it in case you want to use a spell or the like to manually teleport your followers in and out. Otherwise, they'll hang out at the inn until you're done with your bath.

[]The water in the tub should now have the proper transparency! Turns out the vanilla rainbarrelwater.nif was missing some shader flags allowing the game to render it as water. Huge thank you to joy91 for pointing this out!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 2,534 endorsements and 120k downloads – clearly a mod people trust.
- No compatibility patches needed, so it's a drop-in addition that won't fight with your load order.
- Simple and focused – does exactly what it says without bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Only adds bathing spots – if you want full bathing mechanics (like soap, buffs, or animations), this won't cover it.
- Since it touches inns, there's a small risk of conflicts with mods that overhaul inn interiors – worth testing.
- No detailed feature list, so you're trusting the description at face value.
For Skyrim players who want a lightweight immersion boost – a place to wash off the blood and grime without installing a full needs mod. If you're a roleplayer who values simple hygiene, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for complex bathing systems with gameplay effects.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install – no load order tweaks needed.
- Check if you have any inn overhaul mods – if so, test the bathing spot in a few inns to ensure they don't overlap.
- Since it's a simple addition, you can safely add it mid-playthrough without starting a new game.
