I used it during the Obon period. There were fewer amenities than a typical business hotel, and the facility itself seemed old-fashioned. Also, I originally booked a twin room, but the air conditioner didn't work at this time of year, which was a big problem, but my friend and I had to stay in separate rooms for the time being, but it was nice to be able to sleep in an air conditioned room. The employees were kind, courteous, and accommodating, and the price was very low compared to typical business hotel rates, so I would give it a rating of 3. However, the air conditioner equipment is expensive and difficult to provide. However, I think it would be better to change to a modern remote control type.

The staff at the front desk were very kind and guided us around.There was no air conditioning in the building (the floor where I stayed).The door to the room is a key, not a card key.It was a little tight so I added a chain.It is equipped with a refrigerator, air conditioner, hair dryer, TV, and Wi-Fi, making it a perfect room for those staying without meals.The bed is clean, and the room is clean and seems to be well-maintained.There are also simple slippers in the room.The bath and toilet are clean.The toilet doesn't have a washlet, but that's not a problem.It wasn't noisy at night either.Since I stayed without meals, I didn't eat any food, so I don't know.There were also bicycles available for rent.There is also a convenience store just a short walk away.It looks like a building from a long time ago, so it feels old, but I had a relaxing time there.It was a cheap stay and had sufficient facilities, so I would like to stay with you again.thank you very much.

It's the worst. The room was hot but didn't have an air conditioner, there were no toiletries like toothbrushes, no washlet, the TV was a 14-inch mini TV, the price was high, and on top of that, there were noisy kids between 2am and 3am. , making noise, going in and out of the room. The police repeatedly came to the hotel the next morning. I will never stay at a hotel like this again! !

I used it this time, but the heating didn't work at all and it was very cold. The bathroom was so dirty that I couldn't take a bath and felt even colder. This is a hotel I don't want to use again. Thanks to you, I caught a cold. I will never use it again. I'd like you to leave me a blanket, too. I have stayed at different hotels, but this is the worst service. I'll really never use it again. When I go to Mt. Koya many times in the past, I stay in Wakayama and sightsee, but this year's trip was the worst. Three days later, I still have a fever and cough.
