Worst hotel. The air conditioner is broken and will stop immediately. If you make a complaint, they will move you to another room without making any mistake. It's completely different from the photo and dirty.

When I woke up in the morning, the cleaning lady unlocked the door and came in! ! ! Is it okay to come in using a duplicate key even though there are still customers? 💢💢

I stayed for about a week in March 2024.This is a reasonable business hotel.There is a Lawson next door.I think you can find a regular place to eat within walking distance.Therefore, there are no services such as breakfast, but I think this is common for business hotels.New TVs, water heaters, refrigerators, etc. have been installed.However, there are many facilities that feel outdated, such as showers, toilets, carpets, and air conditioners.If you can find such old-fashioned and old-standard things quaint, it might be interesting for a short stay.It's not unusual for Wi-Fi to be weak in corner rooms, but it was almost unusable.Even when connected, the speed is only a few tens of Kbps, and most Web pages time out before they finish loading data.Yes, it is a silent pressure to break free from the barriers of the worldly world and attain enlightenment.On the first day, I thought the router the customer had brought in was causing a loop, but that was the case all week, from check-in to check-out.Unfortunately, it seems like it will take a little longer to reach enlightenment.This is just a matter of perception, but I think all rooms were allowed to smoke when the hotel first opened.It's a non-smoking room, and although the interior decorations and wallpaper have been replaced, you can still smell the faint smell of cigarettes.It's not unpleasant and the smell didn't transfer to my clothes or hair.Those who are concerned about this may want to reconsider.Tepra warning notices can be seen all over the elevators, hallways, and rooms.I feel disappointed when I realize that there have been as many mistakes made by guests who have stayed at TEPRA.The people at the front desk and the cleaning staff were very kind and polite.The kettle will be filled with water every day as a service.I can only eat what I have prepared myself, so I will accept your wishes.There is a bakery that opens at 7am in front of Minamata Station on the Hisatsu Orange Railway.It's about a 5-minute walk from the hotel, and although it's a bit large, it's reasonably priced and has a lot of flavor.Would you like some breakfast?

I've been traveling for work for over 30 years, and this was the worst hotel I've stayed in in a while.No washlet, no Wi-Fi connection, no food.Although I said I had a double room, I was told not to use the two beds.In the end, I went to buy breakfast and when I returned, the cleaning lady had come into the room.The bed mat was tattered.There's a shortage of hotels right now, but this one doesn't exist...That's what it feels like. . .Oh, the cleaning lady left the window open! ! 💢

First of all, thank you for your hard work on me. good morning. Thank you to all the staff who spoke to me.Although the building itself is old, it is well-maintained and has a clean feel.Even though the price is so low, everyone's reviews seem to be a conspiracy.If you want better service and cleanliness, you can stay at a different hotel by paying double the price. (lol)Thank you to all the staff.

This is a Showa era business hotel. The rooms, buildings, and EL are all Showa era.There aren't many hotels in Minamata, so I stayed here, but the Wi-Fi was hopelessly unreliable.The room usually has two beds.If it's cheap, I don't think it's a problem.

Even though it's called single deluxe, it's not deluxe at all.There is a sofa in the photo, but it wasn't there.No washlet in the toilet.There are various types of hangers.The accommodation fee was also about to get ripped off.Be sure to bring your reservation form with the amount listed.The elevator is also old and could stop at any time. It also starts moving before the door closes. You can hear elevator noise in some rooms.Car sounds are good.The only saving grace is that there is a convenience store next door.Also, from what I've heard, reservations are sometimes canceled without permission. The reason is unknown.Hotel below price.
