Used on business tripsParking availableThe customer service at the front desk was good.1 microwave on 1FiceThere is a washing machine and dryer, but it is small.1 elevatorLarge bath availableBreakfast is a buffet, and the menu is pretty standard, but when it's busy, you might want to line up early in the narrow space in front of the coffee machine or wait.The equipment was old, the room key didn't lock automatically, and the bathroom in the room was clean, but the faucet didn't close properly💧The room also seemed to have deteriorated over time, but it was well-maintained.There wasn't anything particularly good or bad about it, but the faucet 💧, there was only one elevator, and there was only one microwave on the 1st floor, which was a little dissatisfying for me who stayed on the 6th floor, so I gave it a ☆2. .

September 21, 2024 AccommodationI stayed in a single room in the west building without a bath.There was no problem because the large bath can be used in both the west building and the main building. Also, I was able to enter at a good time and not overlap with other customers.The room was almost the same as the usual Room Inn, with two outlets at the desk and unfortunately none at the bedside. USB is also fine, so I would like you to install it.Both Wi-Fi and wired LAN connections are unstable and cannot be used very often as they suddenly cut out or lose connection, so I would like to see an improvement.At the time of check-in, we were informed that there would be a group staying, but the voices in the front lobby and hallway were too noisy.Breakfast had the same stable number of items as usual, and I was completely satisfied. It was a slightly chilly morning, especially for this time of year, so the warmth of the stew made me feel warm in the morning.There was no problem with parking as there were many cars.I would like to stay there again if I have to stay nearby.

Within walking distance from Shin-Shirakawa Station on the Akita Shinkansen, and easily accessible from Shirakawa IC on the Tohoku Expressway.There are two buildings, the main building and the west building, and the front desk is only in the main building, so check-in and other procedures should be done at the main building.The west building is a smoking room, an image for single-person rooms only.Main building: Front desk, non-smoking, main dining hall, men's and women's bathsWest building: No front desk, smoking, breakfast with bread only, bathhouse for men only, plenty of vending machinesSince they are built next to each other, there is no stress in moving around, but you will need an umbrella in case of rain (the hotel has its own umbrella).West buildingBaths are open until 2 a.m.There is one washing machine and one dryer in the bathhouse.
