Impeccably clean! The kitchen was extremely well equipped and spotless. Very close proximity to the train station which was convenient, but also meant that you could hear the trains at night (didn't bother us).

This place is really close to the station and we happened to walk into a staff member on the way who pointed us in the right direction. There isn't much around there but it:s not too far from the downtown area.

This hotel is too close to the station so i would not recommend it for light sleepers as trains regularly and loudly pass. The price was not good in comparison to hotels in that price range which included internet, breakfast, water machine etc. This was the only place we had issues with staff.... more This hotel is too close to the station so i would not recommend it for light sleepers as trains regularly and loudly pass. The price was not good in comparison to hotels in that price range which included internet, breakfast, water machine etc. This was the only place we had issues with staff. Its better not to book ahead just show up cause they wont let u get out of a second night even if it is not prepaid. Hint if u stay in the japanese style room be very careful of how slippery the floor is as u step out of the bathroom (there is no sign) but my tailbone is still remembering that hint today. The rooms do have a very odd smell as someone else mentioned. The bike hire was the only real positive about this hotel. Internet access was 100yen for 30 min. I would not reccomend this hotel due to the way we were treated and the price compared to cheaper places we stayed this was not good value.close
