Isn't it good that you can use it with confidence because the quality is the same even in rural areas?

The location is not right in front of the station, but local buses run frequently (about 5 per hour). A route bus connecting Nankai Wakayama City Station and JR Wakayama Station passes in front of the hotel. From the bus terminal in front of Nankai Wakayama City Station (Platform 1 or 2), take the JR Wakayama Station bound bus via "Honmachi 2-chome" and get off at the Honmachi 3-chome bus stop, which will take you right in front of the hotel entrance. I'll arrive. If you are boarding from JR Wakayama Station, take the bus bound for Nankai Wakayama City Station via Honmachi 2-chome, get off at the Honmachi 2-chome (not 3-chome) bus stop, and cross the traffic light to find the hotel. (The interval between Honmachi 2-chome bus stop and 3-chome bus stop is very short)

The breakfast was varied and good, with many small dishes to choose from. The single step by the front door to the lobby and reception had a small ramp in some places, so should be ok for wheelchairs
