Stayed for 1 night sightseeingThe location was good as you could walk from the station and there were convenience stores nearby.I stayed in a double room by myself and it was clean and adequate.I didn't have breakfast included, but it looked like it was going to rain in the morning, so I asked if I could eat at the time of check-in, and they told me it would be open after groups finished at 8:00, so it was okay. I received it and was able to eat it the next morning.I had a delicious meal at a very nice restaurant, and the tableware was made by Yumiko Hoshi, so I was excited.They were also kind enough to store my luggage.The reason why I lost one star is because there wasn't enough water in the bathroom, so it was inconvenient to wash my face.It didn't seem to specify that a tourist tax would be charged...Maybe I didn't notice...Other than that it was very goodThis is a hotel I would like to use again.thank you

The room is small. There are no amenities. It's a shame. The public bath is small and can only accommodate a few people. However, the breakfast was delicious.

*Please be careful if you are riding a motorcycle*I stayed here while touring, but it was a very disappointing experience. If you are a motorcyclist, it is better not to stay overnight.It says there is a parking lot in the facilities, but in reality there is just an hourly parking lot next to it, and you can't park your motorcycle, and there are empty spaces, so when I asked them about it, they just said, ``They don't operate a hotel, so they don't know.'' If you can't be involved in the management, it's probably not a good idea to list parking on the facilities. And this story doesn't make sense to the staff. What was inconvenient was the stance of not responding logically.I have stayed at many hotels in many places, but this is the first time I have had trouble parking. In the end, we were lucky enough to be able to get a special parking spot with a manned parking lot until 7pm, but it still cost 2,500 yen for the night. This was the only stressful experience of the enjoyable Noto/Ishikawa touring. There were a lot of riders who came by SSTR nearby and were able to park well on the hotel grounds, so it didn't seem to be an area issue.Perhaps they were treated as troublesome guests when it came to providing information other than parking, and although the facilities were good, they only explained automatic check-in and did not receive any explanation of hotel facilities.There was no information booklet in the room, and even the location of the public bath was on their own. I ended up searching for it.The location itself was really close to Omicho Market and I was able to participate in the morning market, which was great.

The location is perfect for sightseeing around the city, and the bus stop is nearby and there are many buses, so it's convenient. It's a small public bath, but it also has an open-air bath and a sauna, and the handbag you use when going to the bath was also very convenient. Breakfast is also satisfying with lots of variety.Thank you for helping me find at least one of the earrings I accidentally lost in the bath. The other half...wait for a miracle. Thank you for your help 🙇

The hotel in general is good. Breakfast was good and the onsen area is small but enough. The bit problem is the windows. The windows are like paper. I cannot understand how you build a hotel of this category and then you put windows that allow all the noise from the street to come into the room. Also the curtains are not proper blackout ones, so we woke up at 6:00 am with the light. This is an easy fix, but again difficult to understand how you build a new hotel with bad windows and bad curtains :(

The room was clean. There is no bath in the room. It becomes a shower room. There is no problem for people who do not need a bathtub. There is a large public bath on the 13th floor. Is there anything I can do about parking fees?

Good quality hotel for the price we paid but the beds were super hard. The hotel onsen was nice. We did not try the breakfast so cannot comment on this. Had to check in and out via a machine so no personal service. Location was okay and fairly close to the gardens.
