All the staff, including the front desk staff, were kind and smiling and made my stay very comfortable. The fish for breakfast changes every day and is very delicious! The building may be a little old, but it has been well maintained and the air is replaced, so it feels really clean and I felt very relaxed. I will definitely go again

When I entered the room, there was a strong smell.The entire building is non-smoking, so it's probably a vestige from the days when smoking was allowed.When I opened the bathroom, there was a strong smell that was different from the room. (Maybe mold)You can hardly hear the TV or people talking in other rooms, but you can hear the bath.I woke up to the noise around 4:30 in the morning and it continued until around 5:30.You can clearly hear people talking in the hallway and the door opening to the room.As for the sound, you'll find it anywhere at this price.I think the customer service is good compared to other hotels.Other than the smell, I thought the hotel was worth the price.

・Equipment is old・The air conditioner only has 3 levels of dial operation: L, M, and H.・The walls of the bathtub and bathroom are darkened (they have been cleaned, so is there a hygiene problem?)・The shower curtain also has black stains here and there.・The room will be cleaned every 3 days (it will not be cleaned once during your stay for 3 nights.Towels will be changed every day)・At another nearby hotel in the same price range, you could choose whether or not cleaning was done every day.・(Additional note) On the initial information sheet, there was a small note that said ``If you wish to clean, please contact the front desk,'' but I did not notice it at first glance and was not informed at check-in.・The cleanliness of the bedroom is average.・No room-only plan available・It was stated that the massage service is closed on holidays, but I contacted them on 2 days and they were closed on both days.・Water pipes at dawn? I woke up to a dull noise・When I contacted the front desk, a foreign staff member came, but they couldn't take any particular action and waited for the noise to subside naturally (there was no effort to investigate the cause).・There is one bath towel and one face towel, but no body towel (there is no sponge for washing the body)・No air purifier・No disinfectant spray・Vibrations from the neighbors and the second floor were quite transmitted (I couldn't hear voices etc.)・The price is low・Location is not bad
