Less than 5 minutes walk to Bikan Historical Quarter. I think it's a pretty good location in this era.Whether it's for sightseeing or work, my basic stance is that as long as you can sleep in a clean hotel, that's all you need, so including the price, I gave it 4 stars. I think this hotel is a perfect example of everything you need. Solid management that follows the concept.Points to note are・The hotel's parking lot is small and is often full if you check in late, but you need to park at a nearby municipal parking lot (830 yen for 12 hours), which is about a 5-minute walk away. Since it is municipally owned, it was about 20% cheaper than the market price in the surrounding area.・The breakfast buffet is reasonably priced, so please don't have high expectations.・There are only minimal amenities, so milky lotion is a must-have. If Japanese people with sensitive skin use razors, they will shave too close and end up covered in blood.・The large public bath is a small bathtub similar to the one found in a corporate dormitory. It's about the same depth as a children's pool, so it's safe for people with children, but I think calling it a ``large public bath'' is an exaggeration.・Welcome water is not provided, so if you want to drink it, you will need to make hot water from the tap in the pot provided or bring your own.・Tea, coffee, etc. are available in the lobby, but the drip type coffee in particular is not tightly crimped and the bag may tear from the side when you open it, so I think it's a good idea to take some extra and go into your room.The above is just a simple reference.

I came from Indonesia and stayed here. Very good service, friendly staff, clean rooms and a very strategic location wherever tourist attractions are in Kurashiki. Next I will come here again if given the time and opportunity.

It was my first time staying there.Conveniently located near the dining area.The cleaning was done well and it was comfortable.Parking is available for 1,000 yen on a first-come, first-served basis from 3pm to 11am the next day. Extension was 200 yen for 1 hour.There is a parking lot behind the main entrance. Park where there are no poles and give the parking number to the front desk.When traveling by car during your stay, place the pole at your parking spot.The front desk is on the second floor, and the large public bath is also on the second floor.Vending machines and coin laundry are located on the first floor.There is also a convenience store across the road.

20240906〜072 nights sightseeing in Kurashiki, premium twin smoking room for 3 people. The parking lot is on a first-come, first-served basis, and I think there are 13 spaces, but the parking lots are occupied by people who come to work for consecutive nights, so I think it's best to give up on using the hotel parking lot. Masu. If you park in the hotel parking lot, you will be charged 1000 yen per day. When the hotel parking lot is full, there is a municipal parking lot about a 3-minute walk away, but since we are not affiliated with the hotel, you will have to pay a certain fee. The location is convenient as it is near the downtown area⭕️, the room is not inconvenient, the public bath has a shallow bath❌️, and the breakfast is good considering the price⭕️. The downside is that the parking fee is high.

I felt very bad about the breakfast buffet and wrote a complaint.To summarize the contents,A certain staff member told me to take only what I could eat because I was free to get refills, and she made me stop taking it, but since there wasn't much variety or quantity to take, I stopped for the time being and waited to see what happened, but I took it. Things are decreasing. A separate small plate is provided only to male customers who arrive later. Maybe to avoid being found out, they hand it over to each person one by one and erase the evidence in an instant...I looked at it carefully for a while, but I thought it was obviously strange because there was no sign of putting it out where anyone could take it.When I asked for some for myself, I was told that they didn't have any left. I had been looking at it since the large plate was full before it was served on the small plate. I was waiting because I thought they would line up.Before I knew it, I had no more refills, even though they were free. It was something that made me feel very uncomfortable.If it's just that it's late and there's no Viking stuff, it's just a disappointing memory.I couldn't eat more food because of something the staff told me to eat, and I felt discriminated against by women, and I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.So I contacted the hotel.Then, even though it was just one complaint, the manager responded promptly and I was satisfied with the response.It seems that the clerk in question, who has been discriminating against women at the buffet, was trying to communicate with customers, saying things like how the food should be served and the freedom to get refills. If you can't look at people and respond to them, you're just needing help, so please shut up.According to the hotel managerIt seems that they are planning to discuss improvements and make sure it doesn't happen again.I will prepare the meal till the end.Apparently, they no longer serve individual items on small plates at buffets, but instead place them where everyone can grab them.Change from ★1 to ★4.__________As everyone has said, the walls are thin and you can hear the door opening and closing in the next room.Every time I looked at the door to see if someone was coming in.Fortunately, when I stayed there, there were no noisy people.The baths are a business hotel, so I guess short business hours can't be helped. However, I felt dissatisfied with not being able to rehydrate in the bathroom.The hotel itself was clean, and the only complaint I had during my stay was the breakfast buffet.

I pay the parking fee, but it's a bit of a waste that I can't learn how to manage the cone parking unless I ask them.
