Close to the station and Ario mall, this clean hotel is inexpensive and offers a nice buffet breakfast. It is fine for one person but the rooms are extremely small- two people will be very tight. …

My family used it.When I inquired in advance about using the parking lot, I was told that large vehicles (I had already informed them of the type of vehicle) would not be able to fit there, so I was told to use another coin parking lot. When I checked in, the front desk asked me if I wanted to use the parking lot, and when I told them the details of my inquiry yesterday, I was told that I could park there.Even though I had no knowledge of the area, I went out of my way to check it out and parked it somewhere else. Service is too bad. Why do different people say different things? ?Even though I had given my name at check-in, I was asked for my name multiple times and had to wait for over 30 minutes, and then I was asked to show the reservation screen, and at that time I was told that I had misheard my name. He said he was sorry.Isn't that the case in the service industry? Can't you even properly apologize?If you can't understand, listen until you understand.Can't you do normal things?

Soundproofing is extremely poor. I could hear the snoring from the room next door in the middle of the night, and in the morning I could hear children screaming so loud that I could barely make out what was being said.The room next door is noisy.With home-level soundproofing, it was the worst night's sleep I've ever had in a hotel.The room had wooden floors, which was rare, and it was comfortable to relax in, but the air conditioner was covered in dust, and even if it was just a room for sleeping, it wasn't very comfortable.It can't be helped that the inside of the building is showing its age, but it's dark and scary.I think it's good for day use and lazing around.I would have given it 1 star, but the service was good so I gave it 2 stars.

The rooms are a little dated, but they are clean. It would certainly be nice if the air conditioning could be adjusted for each room.For breakfast, there is a buffet for an additional fee, but whatever you eat is delicious with home-style seasoning!Especially the homemade bread is so delicious that you can eat as many pieces as you want!The staff is kind and I would like to stay again for breakfast.

Thank you for your help many times on business trips etc.I don't have any complaints about this since I leave the hotel room reservation up to the company.The air conditioning throughout the room doesn't work very well during the summer, and after checking in, the room temperature went from nearly 34 degrees Celsius to only 30 degrees Celsius within three hours, so even if I take a shower, I'm sweating right away.In other business hotels, the guest rooms are air conditioned, and individual air conditioning in each room is becoming commonplace, but I wonder if something can be done about it.I have the opportunity to travel all over the country and stay at various hotels, but I have trouble draining the bathtub.I don't know if it happens to hit the wrong room, but if it doesn't, it doesn't bother me at all.I will refrain from commenting on each room I have stayed in before, but I will consider other nearby hotels this fall.There are many convenience stores and restaurants near the station.It is also attractive that there is an open-air bath.
