Stayed here for 2 nights. It is located in a very convenient location for transportation. There are various amenities, and the rooms (single rooms) are clean, but not spacious enough to barely open a suitcase. There was a neat public bathhouse on the first basement floor, so I used it every morning and evening. The staff are very friendly. I will stay again if I come to Shimonoseki in the future.

I used it on a business trip. The room is clean and it's close to the station. Is it a JR hotel?The breakfast was also quite delicious.It's a modern hotel.

Trying to find directions from the train station was very difficult in Google. Then never returned my email regarding the issue and I’m baffled why they don’t have a simple page of instructions that they could send, with stairs and Elevated Crossings Turning out to be unnecessary. If that wasn’t enough, when I checked in at 3:30pm and asked about breakfast, they would not let me sign up for it. The only hotel in all of my traveling for years that did this. After dinner when I returned to the hotel and double checked about breakfast at 8:20 PM, they said oh the cut off time was 8 PM. Check out time is 10 o’clock, which is not atypical in some places in Japan, but is certainly atypical for many hotels on five different continents. There are a lot of other hotels for the same price in this area. I recommend you try one of them.

If you cross the bridge from Shimonoseki Port, the hotel is close by. I made a reservation because the hotel I originally wanted to book was closed. There is a separate bathroom in the basement, so it is good for washing. There are some employees who speak Korean, but not all the time.

I used it on a business trip to Shimonoseki. It had been renovated quite nicely and neither the front desk nor the room felt old. The rooms are spacious and the amenities are collected on the front floor, but they also have drip coffee and tea. The cushions on the faucet, shower bed, and bed were hard, but sturdy and comfortable to sleep on. The hot spring in the basement is small (because it's underground) and there's no view, but I feel like they've taken good care of it, with body towels that people tend to forget to bring from their rooms, and a Nano Care hair dryer. I felt it.I didn't have breakfast (1,100 yen) so I can't rate it, but it's a hotel I'd like to use again.
