It's a fairly old inn, and the food was good as per the reviews, but you can hear noises and conversations from the next room, so I think it's fine if you don't mind that.

In Imabari, the area near the port is the old town. I went there and found out that it's located in the Shutter Shopping District, so to be honest, I'm not really excited about it. When you stay there, you can understand that it is a business inn. The food is just enough to eat, so don't get your hopes up. I think it's safe to stay overnight without meals. I was able to stay at 28 accommodations through travel assistance, but my satisfaction level was among the worst.

I stayed here for a road bike event.Wi-Fi is available, and your car will be parked if there is space available.There was also a shared refrigerator😁.If you're a small group, it can feel a bit lonely, but if you're in a group of 5 or more, this inn is recommended.There is no dinner, but breakfast is served. Moreover, you can eat a lot of it😋.I'm not a local, so I don't have any familiarity with the area, but I think it was a good location, especially since everything was just a short walk away.There is a bath, but this time I used a nearby hot spring♨😊.It was fun because it reminded me of school trips when I was a student.I want to come again 🤗

It's a nice, clean and well-maintained accommodation. As expected from Imabari, the branded Imabari towels feel good after taking a bath, the bath is spacious, and the toilet is clean.Unfortunately, there is no elevator, so climbing the relatively steep stairs may be difficult for some people.

For morning and evening meals, it felt like they bought side dishes from the supermarket and served them as they were.There was no smoking room, the security was sloppy, and it was a cheap inn.

I stayed here for one night without meals while touring.Considering the price, it was just what I needed, and I was satisfied with the friendly staff.I had some unexpected laundry to do, but there was a coin laundry and a covered drying area, which was helpful. Laundry costs 200 yen, and although I didn't use it, detergent cost 30 yen. There was also a dryer, but I didn't have to use it.

It's next to a funeral parlor, and I was confused by the old exterior, but the inside was clean and the tatami mats weren't worn out. …

The place name is Business Ryokan Shofuku, Rakuten Travel. It's affordable and Japanese styled room with common bathroom. They provide coin laundry too. WiFi available. I stayed for a night and was charged Yen 4000. No breakfast or dinner included in my plan. It was a very good experience staying there and they couple who were managing it are very humble and polite. They don't speak English and Google Translator was of big help. The place is about 15minutes walk from the Imabari Railway station. If taking taxi, clearly explain the taxi driver as they could not understand the Hotel location. Taxi may charge you Yen 700. Overall, it's a good stay.

To be honest, I am disappointed because I was introduced to this hotel by another inn.It is especially not recommended for pilgrims.Or rather, if you think of it as training. . lolMy wife seems to be a nice person, but I can't say that my husband is suited to work in the service industry.I couldn't help but complain because of how bad he was, so I filed a complaint.This is also a pilgrimage, and I'm going to stay in the shelter for normal manners.Could you come and pick me up?thank you.Thank you for your help.Thank you for the meal.Isn't that normal?However, from the time I came to pick you up at the temple, I was like, ``Oh?Did I do it? It was that kind of feeling.People looked at me as if I had forgotten to pay my bills early and get in the car, and once I got to the hotel, I was in trouble.I have no choice but to say that it is insane to say something like the following.They told the customers that the story was wrong, that if they were going to say that much they should look it up themselves, and that the handwriting was so bad that they couldn't understand it. Then how can you recognize it as a typo? I wanted to dig into it.I don't understand the point of asking me to come down because the documents written by the hostel are incorrect.Seriously, why are you saying things like that?When I said that, I realized that you were probably the same way, and that you were such a pitiful person, so the pilgrimage was worth it.Especially if you are a pilgrim, please refrain from doing so.My wife seems like a nice person, so I'm giving her a star. lol

It is run by a kind couple. For those who just want to eat and sleep, this is a perfect score.
