It was right next to Takaoka Station.The price wasn't too high considering it was near the station.The receptionist's response was good.The room feels spacious probably because of the way it is made.There was an air purifier, and the bed was clean and comfortable. (I forgot to check where the mattress was)The bathroom is a unit bath toilet.There are shampoos etc.I would like to use it again when I go to Takaoka.The convenience store is the Family Mart on the other side of the station or ahead of the hotel.

We chose the cheapest hotel in Trigoba. I was worried about whether I would be able to stay because the date was fast approaching. There is a parking lot behind the hotel, but the passageway for cars is narrow so it is difficult to park. The room is a little spacious. Amenities are not very good. Recommended for those who just want to stay overnight.

Breakfast is Western food, but it's cold, not tasty, and the place to eat breakfast is small, so I don't recommend it. In the room I rented, the air conditioner's louvers were broken and the air only came out in the downward direction.

I came with 3 motorcycles, and in the comments section of the reservation, I asked about parking spaces for 3 vehicles, but there was no response, but on the day they charged 500 yen per space. Umbrellas are not available for rent even on rainy days and must be purchased for a fee.This is a hotel that does not put the customer first. For the sake of Takaoka, which is a nice city, this is a hotel that I hope will disappear as soon as possible.If you stay overnight, you will see a lot of things.
