The hotel is what it claims to be. The rooms are comfortable (and the twin rooms surprisingly large). Breakfast is pretty basic but works. The laundry prices are extremely good and there's a 7-11 next door. The nearest railway station is about ten minutes walk away.

It was a corner room on the 4th floor. It was spacious. The air conditioning was air conditioned, but it was comfortable and there were no strange odors. The toilets and showers are clean and inconvenient. I think the quality is amazing for a cheap stay. However, I think the parking lot is a bit inconvenient. In particular, the entrances and exits of hotel parking lots are narrow, making it difficult to pass oncoming vehicles. I think that's the only thing you need to be careful about. I don't know about breakfast. I think the front desk response is normal.

I stayed with Marunaga Sushi's sushi plan.I've stayed at this hotel several times, and it's just a normal business hotel with nothing worth mentioning.The plan with sushi from Marunaga Sushi that I used this time was the best.I had no expectations at all, but the delicious sushi far exceeded my expectations.I think it's a very good plan.Currently, it's just Mr. Kameki and Mr. Marunaga, but I think it would be a good idea to collaborate with a sushi restaurant other than Sushi Akira (which I personally dislike as a sushi restaurant) that serves sushi in a shiogama style.I look forward to the future.thank you very much.
