Long stay for business. It's a very reasonable hotel.AZ Group has many differences depending on the region, but this one felt like home.Even before my stay, there were many shift changes at work and I had to call many times to confirm.All the staff were friendly and willing to help me if I had a problem, and they were very helpful.However, it was tough going up the stairs to the 3rd floor while carrying a large carrier 💧My broken leg hadn't completely healed yet. . .Breakfast was also included for free, and the rice balls were easy to eat.Those who want to eat a lot of food may find the variety lacking.There was only one washer and dryer, and it was nice to have a drying rack with casters in the hallway so I could dry my laundry in the room.I don't think it will be much of an inconvenience if you go by car, as you will be taking a bus to the JR station.There was a convenience store just a short walk away.

I think you will have a comfortable stay.Most of the people staying here are businessmen.I don't think it's for private or family use.The building is a low 3-story building and there is no elevator.

The walls are flat and the rain is noisy, and people in the surrounding rooms are snoring💧Even though I asked for a non-smoking room, it still smells like cigarettes💧However, I think it's amazing to have an alarm that wakes you up in a room all the time early in the morning.☺I will never use it again.
