The location is about 5 minutes walk from Fukushima Station.Although the bath and toilet are shared, it was attractive to be able to stay for less than 5,000 yen.

I stayed in the south building, but breakfast was in the main building. There seemed to be an observation bath in the main building, but I didn't use it because it was a hassle.

The lady at the front desk was very kind and pleasant, and the room was clean and spacious (you can easily fit a large carrier!!) and I was able to spend a comfortable time! !It is divided into the main building and the south building (about a 30-second walk), but the main building also has a large public bath and manga rental facilities.I definitely think this is a good hotel that is worth more than the price! !I would like to use it again when I come to Fukushima.Thank you very much (^^)

I stayed overnight without meals, but I was glad that they kindly explained the location of the parking lot, room, etc.

This time it's a losing room.What kind of traces are there?It's 500 yen more expensive than last time, and I really don't like this stain.Still, it's only 4,000 yen for a night without meals, so you can think of it as camping.

This is a valuable inn near the station, with free parking, Japanese-style rooms, and a large (?) public bath.I used it for relaying the movement of Golden Week.We were instructed to use the women's bath by locking the door one at a time. At the bathroom, it was written that it could accommodate up to 2 to 3 people, so it may change depending on the number of guests.We also had dinner and breakfast. For dinner, there are several types of side dishes in a box with free refills of rice and miso. Breakfast was the same and I was able to eat to my full stomach. The kids really liked the sprinkles (?) with a lot of seaweed on them and kept asking for second helpings.My older child was happy to receive a cherry blossom pattern origami from the front desk.My younger child was also very excited to see the trains on his morning walk in front of the station.It was convenient because I could walk to Welcia, which is open 24 hours a day.Although my stay was short, I had good memories.It was difficult to find the parking lot because it was next to the main building.There is one for large and regular vehicles next to the (only for light vehicles), and the other ones seem to be on the side of the south building. (The large parking lot at the intersection was different.)There was a parking information posted on the elevator, but it would be nice if you could see it on the website as well.

Result: None if network environment is importantwireless:I stayed at the main building.At first I was shown to a secluded room on the 4th floor,Wireless LAN doesn't connect at all.Even if you are connected, if you close the door of your room,Garbage specifications with less than 1Mbps for both up and down.Even if you use your smartphone or PC near the door, the connection will drop or the communication speed will be crap.If it is directly under the AP in the hallway, it will output about 30 to 40 Mbps, soTurns out it was simply the wrong location.Opening the door doesn't make much of a difference.When you contact the front desk,Please come and check the speed with your own smartphone,Apparently the room I was shown to was trash.I got a call about 30 minutes later.I was able to move to a room directly below the AP on the 3rd floor.It was a twin Western-style room.Even in that room, it was still late when I went back to bed.Sequential buffering occurs on Youtube even on the lowest settings.In other words, the connection is so slow that video playback is difficult.When I placed my PC on the refrigerator near the entrance, I was able to get speeds of about 5 to 15 Mbps, although it was unstable.Uploading the edited videoIt feels like it's done overnight.As I found out later,The public WiFi spot in front of the station has a speed of over 100Mbps,I thought it would have taken 1/10 of the time if I had uploaded it from Lotteria etc.room:Because it's a twin room,sofas and chairs,10 hangers, clothes rack,small selection clothesline,Comfortable and comfortable.I used the washing machine twice.I was drying it in my room.The first room had no chairs or tables;Working on the computer seemed impossible.There are Western-style rooms without chairs or tables!It's no secret that I felt a culture shock.You could say it's that narrow.Bath toilet:The toilet doesn't have a washlet, so it's not small and easy to use.There is not enough hot water in the bathroom in the room.It seems like the hot water doesn't come out unless I wait more than 5 minutes.Moreover, it is difficult to adjust the hot and cold water.I'm scared of suddenly getting into hot water.This is a problem that I would like to do something about.View bath:On the 4th floor, there is a bath with a view with glass windows on two sides.It's not that big, and if three people can fit in, it's about the size of a room.However, the shower temperature is more stable and easier to use than in the room.If you are staying for several nights, return before evening so you can occupy the bath by yourself and enjoy a graceful bath while looking out.I enjoyed it for about 30 minutes twice.Late night might also be a good idea.Also, there seemed to be a group of students staying there,It was quite noisy andI noticed that the door to my room was rattling.Civility?
