Both the front staff and the staff at the breakfast venue responded well. thank you very much.By the way, when the parking lot in front of the hotel is full, there is a joint parking lot between the hotel and Sorari, between the restaurant next door. Furthermore, if that parking lot is full, you can use that parking lot.

I used it on a business trip to Okawa City, but there were no restaurants or pubs nearby where I could eat. I should have stayed in Saga City or Yanagawa City. The hotel itself is pretty good considering the price. Old Central.
