This was my first time using this hostel, so I was a little nervous, but I was glad that it had all the necessary facilities for a stay.The room had accordion curtains, so the footsteps in the hallway were a bit bothersome at night, but when I stayed there, I didn't hear other people talking in the hallway, so it was okay.Amenity goods are also available at the front desk.I wonder if it's fulfilling.Earplugs were in the room.The toilet and shower were sharedThere was no problem.Towels of all sizes are also provided.The bed was also comfortable.Breakfast was included, and the menu seems to change daily.On this day, it was vegetable curry, and it came with coffee.

I got a large private room, which was more comfortable than I expected.I regret that even though I had a lot of manga, I barely had time to read them.A simple breakfast is included, but one of our part-time employees seems to be working frantically to prepare it, so he doesn't show up to our seats, there's no doorbell, and I don't really know what to do with the system, so I was in trouble.There are two showers on the floor. Will it be a problem if it gets crowded?There is also a private toilet room on each floor. It might be dangerous if they overlap.There is one more thing before EV.I have no choice but to put up with the snoring from the next room.

This hotel is really only suitable for sleeping, not for anything else. The soundproofing is not good and there is no air conditioning in the room. Only the corridor has air conditioning. I don’t know how people can have a good rest like this. The parking is even worse. I was told that they would cooperate and It was a discounted parking lot. However, when we arrived, the parking lot was clearly not clearly marked. It was clearly a parking lot owned by the same company (Misui R&D), but it was said that the parking lot was uncooperative. The tickets I bought at the counter were all eaten by the machine. I told the counter that they did not mark the parking lot. Clear, but they said it was clearly written on the website... What else does the counter need to do? They don't understand that passengers have mistaken the parking lot. They just say there is nothing they can do... It's really a waste of money. Learn a lesson, I won’t do it again next time

Since I was using JR Kurume, it was a little far to the Nishitetsu side.Although the room cannot be locked, it is clean.However, I was afraid of it being stolen, so I put my PC under my bed and forgot about it, but I was told that they couldn't find it, so I'm a little disappointed that it's my poor self-control.

A cheap and clean place near the station. . . I decided on this one based on these conditions.I really don't want to tell anyone, but I want to tell everyone! It was a very good hotel. Although it was called a hotel, toilets, showers, washrooms, etc. were shared, and the doors to the private rooms were separated only by accordion curtains, but they were on separate floors for men and women, and could only be opened without the card given at check-in. Security was perfect. And the common area was also very clean. A small breakfast was included, which was cheap, and I was very satisfied.

If you can hear all the sounds of daily life and there are guests who are noisy, it will be difficult to fall asleep. The effectiveness of the air conditioning is also not good.Most importantly, I was disappointed to find out when I checked in that the bar that was on the website was closed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Please write it down properly.
