Use when traveling on a business tripLocation ▶ Very goodFacility▶The overall feel is old, but the interior seems to have been renovated and is clean (single rooms are small)Breakfast ▶ Considering the price (1,210 yen), it feels expensive, probably because there aren't many items and there aren't many customers.Services ▶ Coffee machine installed at the front desk, unlimited reading of mangaAmenities ▶ Toothbrush, cotton swab → lobby/towel (large, small, for bath), pajamas, water, disposable slippers → roomIt may be more advantageous to choose the price that includes breakfast.I feel like the number of users is increasing and the results are good 😅Indoor space is smallThere is a rough area next to the bed, and the shower room and toilet are separated, so that's a good thing.Overall, the inside of the building has a light feel.

It is located almost in the center of downtown Kumamoto. It's convenient because everything is nearby. I stayed here to take the bus from the terminal. The lobby is on the 4th floor and has a wide range of services.2021.9 Visit

I used it for an overnight stay in Kumamoto city. I looked for a non-smoking room, but it had just been renovated and felt like a new building. It seemed like there was no bathroom in the shower room, but I didn't have a problem with it. If I had to be greedy, I would have liked a microwave oven...

It is located in the downtown area of ​​Kumamoto City, and is a very lively place.For that reason, it is difficult to find the location, including the entrance.The room and bathroom only have a shower and a separate sink.That's a negative point, but you have to choose between the location and the equipment.

The location is very convenient, but the room is relatively small, which is fine for one person. There is no smoke smell in the smoking room, and the overall place is clean and tidy.The facade is a bit hard to find. You have to take the elevator to the 5th floor (it seems to be a department store) in the hotel lobby. There is a comic cabinet in the lobby.

【room】It was beautiful. We had a good view of Kumamoto Castle, and we were also able to see it lit up at night.It's good that we were able to let our 0-year-olds do whatever they want on the tatami floor, but if you leave them unattended, they might go to their shoes, so there should be a door between the place where they take off their shoes, etc. The problem was that there were no partitions.The bed can also be moved if you try hard enough, so I put two of them together and slept together so my child wouldn't fall.【breakfast】It was a buffet style. There weren't that many items, but there were a lot of healthy dishes.The miso soup had a strong dashi stock and was very delicious. I stay at a lot of hotels on business trips, and I think this is the best miso soup I've ever had.Also, the skin around the Ikinari dango was chewy and delicious. The texture was similar to Okinawa's Umukuji tempura.Perhaps because the juice contains a high proportion of fruit juice, the orange juice was sour and unpopular with children. (Adults find it delicious.)【parking】If you park at the affiliated Passut 24 Ginza Press, which is not attached to the station, you will receive a discount ticket. It was 1100 yen by check-out time.It was difficult to find the affiliated parking lot, so I asked them over the phone to find out.

I stayed here on a recent trip. The gentleman at the front desk served us politely. The breakfast venue was also served by smiling and kind staff. The room was compact, but it didn't feel cramped, it was reasonably built, clean, and very comfortable. Being able to lay out futons in the tatami area was helpful for families with small children. The location is also very good, and I would like to use it again when sightseeing in Kumamoto.
