The location is convenient, close to downtown and tourist spots. The multi-story parking lot is small and it is difficult to park cars with number 3, but you can use nearby affiliated parking lots.In the lobby, there was a tasting corner for 3 types of shochu mixed with water (with snacks), as well as mineral water and white bear ice cream.Breakfast includes pork shabu, pork kakuni, grilled fish, miso soup, and a wide variety of rice dishes, including chicken rice. Plenty of volume.The room is also clean enough.High cost performance.There was a temple next door, and I was startled awake at 6am by the sound of a gong. I didn't need an alarm, but that was a bit disappointing.

The air conditioner filter is the reason why the air conditioner is not cold. The inner tank filter of the washing machine is old and dirty. The photo is too off-putting, so I won’t post it.I was going to give it a low rating, but due to the above-mentioned shortcomings, this kind of cleaning project is not a process that is usually done when cleaning the room. It should be formulated as a monthly key maintenance project. We cannot blame it on the cleaning staff's negligence. We can only say that there is something wrong with the hotel's housekeeping management planning.The wifi is a bit weak. Hot water comes slowly. I requested kitchen utensils when booking, but ignored them.After talking about the shortcomings, let’s balance it and talk about the advantages. Although there is a restaurant operating on the floor and there is no smoking ban on the balcony, there is no obvious smell of smoke indoors, which is great. Other cleaning tasks are also done well and the service is very polite. The rooms are spacious and the price is affordable.The hotel is located in a location that is close to the downtown area on one side and a park and the Seongsan Observation Deck on the other. It is convenient for shopping, dining, and sports.There are many advantages, but the flaws do not hide the advantages. I think four stars is a very suitable evaluation.

The rooms are average. Not bad. Or should I say that?The breakfast is worth mentioning. It's insanely delicious.You should definitely choose Japanese food.I can eat polar bear ice cream every day, it's comfortable, and it's wonderful.We recommend parking at the coin parking lot next door.It's 400 yen from 8pm to 8pm.

Best of all, the breakfast is delicious. Although the portions are large, the pork shabu is the best.The employees are also very polite and responsive.It was nice to have more local color than recent hotels.

I used it for business on weekdays.I was able to get a spacious room in a good location for about 5,000 yen.Furthermore, the famous pork shabu breakfast was filling and delicious, but the only thing I was disappointed with was that the room had a smell typical of old buildings (or rather, it smelled like a hospital?).As soon as I entered the room, I tried to use the air conditioner to ventilate the room so it didn't bother me, so I think it would be a very good hotel if this issue was resolved.
