I used it for a long stay.The first floor has a wide ceiling, stylish art, and a bar counter, so I was excited because I like things that look great. On the first floor, some people were eating and drinking while working on their computers, and there was an overall quiet atmosphere. From time to time, we hold dinner parties for residents, and I was able to enjoy interacting with a variety of people, which left an impression on me.Meals were provided, but there was also a space where you could cook your own meals, which I was grateful for since I was staying there for a long time.thank you very much.I would like to use it again.

I'm a Taiwanese who lived here for 4 days in May 2019. It's very comfortable, the cleaning is done well, and the staff are kind. But the Taiwanese couple who was in the same room was so noisy in the morning that I felt a little sick lol.

The cleaning was very thorough, and I never noticed any dirt around the water or stove during my stay. The refrigerator was also well organized, and there were no old items left or it was too full to hold my own items.Accommodation costs were among the lowest in Fukuoka, but the facilities were comparable to other inns.Occasionally, the staff at the inn host takoyaki parties, where you can enjoy takoyaki for free. Get to know the staff and other guests
