There are many good bars nearby.I think it would be nice to come with friends and family in a 4-person room.The toilet, shower and sink are all separate.Even though there was only one bathroom, it wasn't too inconvenient.However, if you are sensitive to room conditions,Be sure to know that additional fees are required for cleaning!!Towels must be received in advance in the morning!!

The staff were polite and very pleasant.I thought it would be far from the station, but it wasn't that far. Even with my suitcase in tow, it seems like it takes just over 5 minutes. Check-in and check-out are also smooth.

Although it is a hotel, there are virtually no hotel staff. You may feel like foreign part-timers only see you when you check in or check out. There are no phones in the rooms, and in some of the shared rooms, the outlets are low on the legs or behind the shelves, making it difficult to keep the charging device in place. If it is a square-shaped structure, it would be better to have the air conditioner in the center, but people under the air conditioner will feel hot and people on the other side will experience cold.Because it is a place where local accommodations are gathered, it is quiet, and there are convenience stores and grocery stores such as Aeon Supermarket not far away. Although you can't see the staff, there are many necessary amenities in the hallways and first floor lobby. It is a digital door lock and you receive a number by email. The wifi in the room is faster than the sim card. This is a clean and quiet accommodation.

PROsLocation - is absolutely close to everything and Bars, Restaurants, and Shops for all needs are very close by.Interior - is clean standard, basics all included.CONsStaff - is super kind and English is no problem at all. They care about you if there’s something.Service - just the basics, but those were done ok, however, …INCIDENTI had a pair of expensive spare batteries for my camera placed on the table, recharged and ready to use, just went out to a coin laundry shop, then one hour later I returned. AFTER SERVICE WAS DONE ONE OF THOSE BATTERIES WENT MISSING (what is strange). ALSO THE TOWEL THEY USED TO WIPE THE DUST WAS FORGOTTEN ON THE TABLE. However, after a long search (under bed, behind fridge/desk, etc.) I gave up and brought back the towel and asked the front desk how to handle this case, but yeah, you guess it… nothing! So, a bit disappointed! Maybe there is still an offer for it?All in all, 3/5 stars (or 5 out of 10).I could have recommended this hotel but only if this BATTERY CASE would have been investigated more seriously with an offer.Thank you for having me (7 nights).
