The breakfast buffet didn't have a lot of variety, and even if it was reduced, it was slow to add more, and in the end I wasn't satisfied.・Seats fill up quickly and you may have to wait.・The breakfast venue was very small, so even though I was staying for an exam, I had no choice but to give up breakfast. I feel that a slightly larger venue with no steps, such as the second floor, would have been better.・Not recommended for people who want to go out in the morning.・The water from the bathtub in the guest room and bathroom was a 3-point unit.I felt that the water was not draining smoothly, so much so that the entire floor was soaked with water. Water leaking from under the sink? Perhaps because of this, the drainage ball was dripping into the trap. 627

That's good. It was quiet and beautiful. I don't know about meals since I'm staying without meals. I think it would be difficult to find dinner around this area from Yamagata Station. Please clarify whether you will be eating out, at a hotel, or in your room at a local supermarket. You can enjoy them all. Changes made midway through are a recipe for failure.

From Aomori, stayed at a business hotel for 2 nights in Akita and Yamagata, then stayed here.The politeness of the front staff is also different from business hotels.It's a little far from the station, but it's not too far to walk so it's a good exerciseIt's convenient because you can enter the dates you want to stay on Google Maps and find the cheapest site.I booked a long time in advance so I was able to get a good deal and my room was upgraded.In the room, there are 2 bottles of water for your pet, tea bags, and 4 Nespressos, so you can compare drinks and be very satisfied.You can also get a free coffee coupon at the front desk, so you can take it out when you leave.Breakfast is huge, and everything including the local imoni and dashi soup is delicious and filling. After that, I had a happy time as I planned to go for a walk and just lounged around in my room until checkout.As other people have written, the floor and walls of the unit bath are tiled as it is a few years old, so I think it might be a little difficult to maintain, but it was quiet and relaxing.I got a small gift for following me on Instagram. I was really happy 😋All amenities are provided, but it would be nicer if they gave bath salts only to those who requested them.I wasn't able to do much sightseeing in Yamagata this time.I would like to visit Yamagata again and would like to use it again.

Clean for the price.The water system is still old, so it seems to be considered safe for women.

It looks like an old hotel, with low ceilings in the hallways and guest rooms. The room I stayed in was a twin, but it was spacious.It's easy to use as it has a stand where you can spread out your carry bag, and it's good that you can drink mineral water and four types of Nescafe's Dolce Gusto. (I bought milk at a convenience store near the hotel and made it into a latte. LOL)I'm a little disappointed that the details of the cleaning were not taken care of.There is no public bath, so the bath is in the room, and it is relatively spacious, but the drainage is a little poor, which I would like to see improved.Breakfast included local specialties such as imoni, tama konnyaku, Yamagata dashi, and omizuke, all of which were delicious.There are also three types of common sausages, bacon, scrambled eggs, hot spring eggs, grilled fish, natto, curry, and bread. With yogurt and fruit, I was full and the whole family was very satisfied.Too bad I forgot to take a photo 🤣The staff at the hotel were very nice, and I had booked through a low-cost website, so I was a little disappointed, but I think it was more than worth the price.Is the parking lot expensive unless you get it from the official site? It was 1,000 yen a day.Although it is located on the east side of Yamagata Station, in the middle of the city with many shops, there is no feeling of traffic congestion, and access to surrounding shops is convenient.I would like to use your service again if I have the opportunity, so I hope you will do your best.Thank you very much☺️
