I stayed in a non-smoking room. Although it is an old facility, there was no smell and it was comfortable. Breakfast was a good buffet.

Used on business trips. The building feels old.I don't think it's bad considering the price, which includes free breakfast.The location is convenient as there are convenience stores nearby.However, the parking lot was full, so I parked in the underground parking lot, but the underground parking lot is small. If you stop at the exit shaped like a slope, you'll have to make a U-turn to exit, but it's narrow. If other cars are parked near the exit, it will be difficult to turn around.I was parking a slightly larger SUV, but it took a considerable amount of time to turn back and forth several times to get out.It's easy to park in the outdoor parking lot, so if you have a large car, you may want to check in early.

Although it is undeniably old, it has all the necessary facilities. The staff are also very calm.If you are using it for work, you can use it without any problem, and if you are a couple or family who are used to traveling, there will be no problem.There is a spacious parking lot, and there are convenience stores and several pubs nearby.

Shower pressure✕Room size◯Cleanliness of the room△Cost performance✕Since I left early in the morning, I wasn't able to eat the free breakfast, so I think the cost performance was lower, but it still felt expensive.It's about a 10 minute walk from Shingu Station.

It takes less than 10 minutes on foot from Shingu Station.The building has a full Showa feel, but there are no problems with the facilities.I felt the hotel was motivated to add an outlet and USB charging port near the bedside.However, the only way to turn off the lights in the room was with the switch at the entrance, so I would like to see an improvement.The people at the front desk were not too formal, yet they were polite and I had a good impression.The facility is old, but the facilities have been updated and I think it's a good hotel.

The man in his 60s at the front desk late at night, I don't think he would respond in a polite manner. It was a shame that he was so uneducated as a hotel manager.
