It's conveniently located near the station and there are many shops within walking distance. The parking lot is large and free, which is nice.The mode switching of the air conditioner in the room is controlled all at once.There were only two outlets in the room, which was inconvenient, so a table tap is essential.

There's a supermarket right in front of you, which is convenient! It's close to other restaurants and near the station, so it's great.

The bed and pillows are the worst!It's so stiff that just lying down makes my body hurt and feel unwell. I sleep on my bed with a mattress I bought at Nitori.The service at the hotel was also bad.When I called the front desk to borrow another pillow, they told me to come to the front desk to pick it up! I appreciate that breakfast is included, but the menu is the same every day and I get tired of it.The location is strange and there are no places to eat nearby, which is a problem.I stay at various hotels for work, but I don't want to stay in AZ.Also, the hallways are so hot that it feels like a sauna in the summer.

The female staff at the front desk was unpleasant. Even though there were about 10 customers in front of him, his eyebrows were furrowed and he spoke in an irritated tone. If you behave like that at check-in, you won't be able to stay comfortably. Other than that, it was no different from other AZ hotels.

The location is good, and the breakfast and dinner are delicious. However, the room smells of musty and is small.

I used it on my way back to Harmony Land. There are many restaurants nearby, but since it was a Saturday, all of them were fully booked. Dinner at a nearby sushi master was delicious! The supermarket in front of us was open until 8 o'clock. I bought Kabosu and Kabosu Ponzu sauce as souvenirs at the supermarket ^ ^It's cheap, convenient, and allows you to stay with peace of mind.

I have used it 4-5 times already. I wish I had a brush and cotton swab, but I always use them because they are cheap ☆ I hope to see you again in the New Year ♪ (*- -)(*_ _)Thank you for always offering twins at a low price 😆💕✨The refrigerator wasn't cold and the washlet was broken, so I had to change rooms (≧▽≦) My husband is selfish and I'm sorry (*- -)(*_ _)Thank you very much to the staff who checked to the next room and took the key.I'm glad that breakfast is free (person*´∀`)And maybe because Fukuoka is close? Mentaiko is delicious ((o(^∇^)o))I've already made a reservation for the end of the year, so thank you very much!

I stayed with family from far away. For dinner, we had all-you-can-drink and buffet options. This time, I stayed in a twin room and took advantage of the dinner buffet and all-you-can-drink option. For the all-you-can-drink option, you are given a glass, so it was nice to be able to drink it individually. I would like to use it again. I appreciate the kind customer service (*´꒳`*)

I've used the Friday night stay many times, and since there are no rental cars or shared cars nearby, this time I took the limited express train to Beppu and rented a car for a few days from the Times store behind the station. (Free parking lot is also large)I think the price including breakfast is cheap, but I didn't have dinner here.Since this is a town where Hello Kitty lives, there are Sanrio characters in the station building in front of you! When you walk, the manholes are also Hello Kitty.While I was relaxing, I couldn't get a reservation for Saturday, so I decided to look for one in Beppu! (It's popular, isn't it?)
