Although the building is old, it is well-cleaned and clean.There is no elevator in the old building, so I gave it a rating of 4.

There are three free Wi-Fi options to choose from, but it's difficult to connect to any of them.It's enough just to sleep.I'm concerned about the noise from the refrigerator and ventilation fan.There seems to be a large public bath.

I was unable to return home due to the heavy snow that fell in February of this year, so I had to ask for your help in a hurry. ① There was a discrepancy of 2,000 yen between the amount I was told over the phone and the amount I paid at check-in (I was told unilaterally that I had said the wrong thing). ②The batteries in the TV remote control were dead. ③The light in the room was about to go out. ④The tatami mats were in disrepair and were covered in stains. It was the lowest quality hotel ever.

5/5
When I made the reservation, I thought it would be okay because it seemed old, but when I stayed there, it was comfortable and I liked it.Although the building is retro from the Showa era, I was impressed by the high level of cleanliness, with the rooms and every corner of the building being kept well-maintained.Smoking is allowed in the tatami room, so I was worried about the smell of cigarettes, but it didn't bother me at all. It's an old building, so the tatami mats are dirty. When you open the window, you can see rice fields and mountains, and a nice breeze comes in.The baths are not separated by gender, but the entrance is locked and each person uses the baths in turn. If you are a woman traveling alone, you may have to be a little careful. This is the system I use. We were a family of three, so we took a bath like a family bath. I felt comfortable in the large bathtub.I usually sleep on a regular futon on tatami mats, but this one is extraordinarily comfortable. Really.You can walk to a convenience store and eat out, and the cost performance is good, so I thought it was a convenient hotel for motorcycle touring.
