Twin / Consecutive night use (business trip)The age of the building cannot be denied. I noticed spider webs and dust on the ceiling of the staircase on the first floor.There is no hot water in the bathroom. It's tough in the cold season. I also wish they had hand washing soap.As for the equipment, the light switch in the toilet and bathtub is linked to the ventilation fan in the room where the bed is, so if you turn on the light to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, the person in the room will wake up to the sound of the ventilation fan, which is stressful. It was a room.People who slept in rooms facing the railroad tracks said that the sound of trains (freight) was noisy.The time on the clock on the wall is off, and the BS doesn't show up. There's no pen on the desk. Lighting is dark. A paid program for adults like Hotel in the Showa era.When I returned to my room after going out, I was surprised to find a spare yukata lying on top of my carrier bag.Sorry for all the dissatisfaction, but I have written my honest impressions.It has become a hotel that I do not want to use as much as possible.

wide. Although it is old, the cleaning is not bad. Free parking. Wi-Fi was difficult to communicate with, so I used smartphone communication. I thought I had booked a non-smoking room, but the floor smelled of cigarettes. If you search on the internet, you will get suggestions. . . I was able to stay there without any problems. It was reasonable. It was about 4900 yen from Saturday to Sunday.

I like the atmosphere. The room key is also an old-fashioned one that doesn't lock automatically with a regular key. The front desk staff was also kind.However, the wifi in my room is very weak and requires a wired connection, and the area from the entrance to the unit bath is where the signal is most difficult to use. There is no outlet near the bed, so I charge my smartphone on the desk.Although it is a little far from the station, there is a large parking lot that is easy to use by car, so it may be convenient for family trips, training camps, etc.

Who is this bossy guy who is always looking at his smartphone in the black Alphard parked behind the hotel? It's just unpleasant ⚡

It's a fairly old hotel.There is a lot of damage to the furniture and the bathroom.When I made the reservation, I couldn't choose between non-smoking or smoking, but I was able to adjust it at check-in.

I was worried because there were a lot of negative reviews, but as long as I was staying at a bare minimum without having to worry about luxury, I had no problems.A few minutes walk from Hikone Station.There are minimum facilities such as a unit bath, air conditioner, and TV (there was also a refrigerator. Does it depend on the room?)It was especially helpful that there was a coin laundry (detergent 50 yen, washing 200 yen, drying 100 yen).However, the cleaning didn't seem to be done properly, there were small insects crushed on the walls, hair on the floor of the unit bath, and a thin layer of mold on the walls.There are small pieces of white trash all over the indoor floor...It's not suitable for people who are overly sensitive.The person at the front was an older man, but he was a little dry. I'm not looking for high-quality customer service at the front desk, so this is fine. There seems to be no problem as long as the customer does not do anything strange.Anyway, it's cheap compared to the surrounding area, so be aware of that before using it.Thank you for allowing me to stay. thank you.

It's called Station, but it's not in front of the station lol. It's about an 8-9 minute walk from the station. Therefore, it is not suitable for people like me who want to leave their luggage and go sightseeing the next morning. I used a coin locker at the station. The hotel is like a renovated Showa-era condominium, so everything is old, but the room is clean with a spacious bed and a desk.
