The location is a bit far from the station, but very close to the canal and the art village. It is convenient for shopping, and it is even more convenient to go to Tengu Mountain to see the night view. The stop sign is right at the door. Generally speaking, the environment is good. Breakfast is 2500, average level, and convenient. If you like a rich Japanese breakfast, it is recommended to walk to the fish market next to the station. There are many set meals to choose from for 1000-2000. The most inconvenient thing is that there are too few washing machines, and there are only two washing and drying machines. Especially at night, it can't be filled even three times.

Very close to the canal, the location is very convenient, the service is good, the rooms are clean and tidy, and the price-performance ratio is high. The only drawback is that the public baths are very small and there are often queues. It is recommended to bathe at odd times.

There is a ground parking lot right next to it, but the space is limited to about 15 cars.Parking fee is 1,500 yen, and once you enter the designated parking lot, that spot can be used as a dedicated parking spot during your stay.The price is quite expensive compared to other paid parking lots in Otaru.And parking in the front.The large public bath is very narrow and there is no open-air bath.The location is good. It's about a 7-minute walk to the Otaru Canal.It takes 15 to 20 minutes to reach the Music Box Hall.Waraku Sushi was also convenient as it was about a 10-minute walk away.The Japanese staff at the front desk are friendly, but they barely speak English.It was comfortable because there was a Korean staff member!For breakfast, set a time when you check in and go to the restaurant on the first floor at that time!
