It's a bit of a walk from Niigata Station, but there are many restaurants along the way where you can kill time. The room seemed a little old, but it was kept clean and tidy, and the front desk staff was polite. I would like to use it again.

The level is extremely low.On the day of check-out, at 10:05 a.m., the cleaning staff came in without knocking and unlocked the door.Not a single word of apology.I have stayed at business hotels hundreds of times all over the country, but this is the first time I have stayed at such a low-quality hotel.I was too stunned to say anything.

I checked in late at night due to work, but the staff at the front desk prepared towels and greeted me cheerfully.When I asked over the phone, there was only a smoking room available, but I was able to stay in a non-smoking room.The room was clean and I could watch YouTube on the large TV, but it was a shame that the bathroom smelled like sewage.

It's close to the station, convenient for meals, and cheap. However, the equipment in the room is old.

Everyone at the front desk was very helpful.For some reason, smoking was prohibited on the upper floors (if by some chance you were to do housework due to mismanagement of smoking, smoke and fire would go to the top, so wouldn't smoking be on the upper floors?), and perhaps because I was on the 8th floor, I had a hard time showering.This is because the water in the shower is weak and doesn't come out strong even when you twist it.So, I adjust the temperature by turning the water to maximum and the hot water to low (less).The shower is inevitably weak, which is the biggest negative point.In terms of sensory image, even if you turn it to its maximum, water will only come out in 2nd place out of 5, and hot water will come out at 5. If you don't turn the water to the second level, it will be too hot to touch. So, if the shower temperature is right, it will be fine.Another mystery was that when I turned on the FM radio attached to the bed, it was FM Nagano. Why Nagano when it’s Niigata?It doesn't have a tuner, so you can only listen to the default channels.I was curious and asked the lady at the front desk, but she didn't understand.

This is a very convenient business hotel within a 10 minute walk from Niigata Station. recently? Although the price has gone up a little, it is a comfortable hotel that has everything you need for a business trip.
