The costs varied, but they were minimal. The quadran was the lowest denomination of Roman coin and the general bath fee was usually one quadran. However many times the baths were free, as when they were dedicated, or in celebration of some event, the emperor or celebrity of the moment would give free entrances to the baths for a year.

(The quadran was the lowest denomination of Roman coins.) But many times the baths wee completely free as it was common for emperors or other public figures to make a gift of free baths for a year to the people.

∙ 12y agoThe cost of an ancient Roman bath depended upon which bath one used. The private baths charged fees based upon the services rendered while the public baths were many times free due to a gift from the emperor or some wealthy citizen. If there were no freebies going a citizen would have to pay no more than 1/2 of an as at a public bath.

∙ 11y agoit is uncertain what the exact amount charged for the baths was. However we do know that it was very reasonable for the imperial or public baths. It would have more than likely been no more than a quadrans or a semis, which were very low denomination coins. Many times the baths were free as an emperor or wealthy person would give free bathing for a year to commemorate an anniversary of an event, or a "grand opening" of a public building. The privately owned baths were a different matter. The owners could set their own price.

How did the roman baths make things worse?
Roman baths did not, as the question implies make things "worse". Ancient Roman baths were built first in Rome and later became a part of all large Roman cities and in cities Rome conquered that were deemed large enough to have them. Wealthy Romans often had their own private baths. Many Roman cities and conquered ones had indoor plumbing fed by waters carried in from Roman built aqueducts. Public baths were in a sense part of Roman genius and part of Roman culture. Some of the baths were fed by natural spring waters. The baths in some places were so sophisticated that they were heated. The baths were ideal for Roman citizens who could not afford private ones. The baths served not only as a place to keep clean, but were also recreational and a place for people to gather and meet.
