Has it been renovated and is now beautiful? ! The last time I stayed here, it was a bit run down, but I came back because the location, staff, and room were spacious.Because I know the past, I've become more beautiful and my condition is terrible. It's so much more beautiful than before. The hallways are still the same, but the rooms are now really clean!~Compared to before~・The futon is clean. The covers have changed from the Showa era to modern hotel sheets. This makes me happy・The hallway still has a Showa feel・There are no Japanese dolls in the lobby! It has become a modern hotel without the old-fashioned feel.・I used to call the reception and have someone come check in, but now it's automatic so it's easier.・The key is not bent! lol*The front was bent, hmph! I opened the door while・The bathroom is just like nostalgic.・The floor is not tatami. The material has a nice feel to it.・There is a low table and sofa, and there are more comfortable cushions.・The TV stand looks nicerI had booked for 4 nights, but it was so good that I added 5 nights! *I suddenly canceled my plan for 5 nights at another hotel*I was surprised at how beautiful it turned out! However, the price range does not change that much. It was a little more expensive than before, but I was surprised at how cheap it was!Check-in has also changed!I was sad because I couldn't meet the kind uncle staff, but as long as you're doing well, that's fine! I will stay again. Please stay healthy.

Stayed here on my first trip to Okinawa in 2011.After that, my second trip to Okinawa during the long May holiday was fully booked and I couldn't get a reservation.During my 10 visits to Okinawa until fall 2019, I stayed there 9 times.First of all, for first-time guestsCheck-in after sunsetPlease avoid.I get lost in the Kibogaoka area.When I stayed there for the first time, I got lost in the Kibogaoka area for about 20 minutes.From the intersection of National Route 58,Even if you set the same hotel as your destination on your car navigation system, please be aware that you will not arrive in one go.From the same intersection, please use the smartphone app map.Parking is available in front of the hotel building, the second parking lot,There will be 2 locations.A few years ago, the Statue of Liberty suddenly appeared.When you see the Statue of Liberty, there is a slope on your left.The square at the bottom of the slope is the second parking lot.When checking in and checking out, I think it is better to park your car in front of the hotel.Accommodation for two couples.I liked the spacious room and decided to stay here permanently.The fourth floor is a Western-style room.The third floor is a Japanese-Western style room.As for the bed, it's generally a hard mat.I heard that the second floor is a Japanese-style room.I didn't stay on the second floor, so I can't rate it.As of spring 2020, smoking will be prohibited indoors.There seems to be a smoking area next to the hotel entrance.It looks like it will be outdoors.The room key is a card type.The first time, I couldn't open or close the lock.Once you get the hang of it, you can open and close it in one go without any difficulty.We are currently refraining from traveling due to the new virus.Once you've settled in, this is the hotel you'll definitely want to stay at.Summer 2021 Note

I thought about this because I got lost. It is something that the town and village offices are thinking about, but the main street should be made into a blue line. Place something conspicuous, nocturnal, in the corner as a marker for night use. Dreams and hopes!

I wanted to save money on one night during my honeymoon so I decided to use it. I wanted to go sightseeing from Busena Marine Park the next day, so I looked for a reasonably priced hotel nearby and came here.The location is on top of a hill, so you'll need a car, but if you're on the 3rd floor, you can see a little of the ocean and it's beautiful.The facilities include face wash and body soap. If you are concerned, it is best to bring it separately. I don't even have a towel to wash my body with, so I used that as well.Still, I was very relieved because I could connect to YouTube!The nearby sea is extremely clear, so I recommend it to those who want to go there at a reasonable price.Please note that there are island cats sleeping on the road along the way (lol)

Although it looks old, the rooms were clean.There are no shops around, so you can spend a very quiet and relaxing time.I felt it was inconvenient that the Wi-Fi in the room was not connected.

First of all, I don't recommend it.It is a fairly old building that has been renovated, and the entrance on the first floor and the inside of the rooms are very clean and comfortable.But other than that, it's miserable.The hallways and room balconies have not been renovated at all and are old. It's fine if it's just old, but it seemed like it hadn't been cleaned at all, and it was so dusty that I started coughing just a few seconds after getting off the elevator and heading to my room.The windows in the room were also dirty. When I opened the window, I noticed a strange smell and thought it was something, but I realized it was coming from the dirt on the screen door, which I don't think had been washed in 10 years, and the dirt on the balcony.Even though we had a balcony, it was impossible to go out on it.If you only look at the hallway and balcony, it looks like a ruin, but it's a shame because the rooms are clean and comfortable.I think it's best to avoid the hallways if you're traveling with children, as coughing can be a health hazard.Again, the rooms are clean and comfortable.I think it would be a good hotel if the hallways and balconies were cleaned and looked decent.

Arrived by rental car using Google Maps. The Statue of Liberty is a landmark. Check-in is an online system. The room is clean and spacious. There are minimal amenities. Since there is no room cleaning to do, it would be nice to have a simple cleaning kit like a broom or a roller. It was a convenient location for sightseeing in a rental car, allowing you to travel to various parts of Okinawa in one hour.

You will not be able to arrive using the rental car's navigation system. You will need Google Maps on your smartphone.It feels like the area called Kibogaoka flourished from the Showa era to the early Heisei era.As soon as I saw the hotel, I thought it was in ruins.I think it would be a good idea to at least make some changes to the exterior, such as pruning the trees at the entrance of the private house or removing the broken coin laundry, to give it a cleaner look. The Statue of Liberty, which makes no sense, makes me feel like I've seen something dangerous. It would be better to remove the Statue of Liberty and replace it with a symbol tree.The inside of the building has been renovated so it's beautiful. The room was spacious and satisfying. The only thing that ruined that was the check-in system.I wish it were a little easier to understand. I haven't heard anything about advance check-in. It was stressful for my wife to rush me when I was struggling.A car is a must for eating rice.
