It is located directly across from NHK Mito Broadcasting Station. From the station, it's about a 17-18 minute walk up a gentle uphill slope.Since NHK is nearby, I think it's a great place to visit NHK.The staff's response was very good!It seems that the breakfast service has ended from June 2024, so you should be careful when eating breakfast.There is only a non-smoking floor on the 3rd floor, so I would like to see more non-smoking floors as people are becoming increasingly aware of preventing passive smoking.

I made a reservation here because the regular lodging was fully booked.The exterior looks like an apartment building, but the hotel has a somewhat historical appearance.I was about to call JAF because my car had a flat tire that was barely drivable, but I was grateful for the very kind offer of allowing me to use two parking spaces at the hotel.The room was okay and felt like a typical business hotel.I was impressed that there was an ashtray in the unit bath.

Hotels where hygiene is a concern, with long hair on the comforter and dirt on the TV screen.Three days later, I contracted coronavirus, but this may be related.Breakfast was delicious with onigiri, inari sushi, and other unique dishes.It's a shame.

I wasn't expecting much, but the lobby was beautiful with an atrium. The room had been partially renovated and didn't feel that old. For breakfast, rice balls are served. I think it's very reasonable.

The bedside lamp doesn't come on. When I called the front desk, they said the light bulb might be out. ...Eh, isn't that something you usually check when cleaning after the guests leave? I felt disappointed.The customer service of the employees was polite.Also, there was no outlet near the bed, so it was difficult to charge my smartphone.

I stayed there for 2 days. The reasonable price of 4,900 yen includes breakfast rice balls, bread, and lightly seasoned side dishes. I had no complaints about the instant miso soup, onion soup, drinks, etc., and I felt a sense of security and sincerity in the rice balls wrapped in plastic wrap. I walked to Mito Station, which was about 1.5 km and was a nice walk. The only thing that bothered me was the damp smell from the partition curtains in the unit bath. If I ever go to Mito again, I would definitely stay here again. thank you very much.

Although the price was low at less than 5,000 yen per person per night, it was not a so-called rubbish hotel at all, and was comfortable enough to be a business hotel.The only thing that bothered me was that the refrigerator in the room was extremely noisy. (All you have to do is turn it off, and it's within the acceptable range)The location is a little tricky, as it takes more than 10 minutes to walk from Mito Station, but it's worth taking the bus, but I think it's a very good hotel if you're looking for a cheap stay.

It is located far away from the hotels around Mito Station. I stayed for 5 consecutive nights (smoking room).It's a fine building. You can feel the remains of the bubble in the entrance, which uses plenty of stone.The people at the reception were polite and pleasant.Welcome coffee (made by DeLonghi machine) is authentic coffee that is ground from beans.The room was old but clean.It might look better if the carpet was replaced a bit.There are no power outlets near the bed, but at the desk, so if you want to keep your smartphone near the bed, bring an extension cord.The motor noise of the small refrigerator was annoying. The hotel seems to be aware of this as there was a notice saying, ``If you are concerned about noise, please turn off the power.'' I turned it off right before I went to sleep. This time it was early autumn, which is nice, but what if it was midsummer?Unit baths are very common. The only disappointing thing was that the faucet was not a single lever. Adjustment is troublesome.What surprised me was that it was equipped with a trouser press. I didn't use it this time, but it seems like it would be useful when wearing a suit.Breakfast was delicious. The rice is rice balls (several types).Side dishes change daily, including meat and potatoes and fried chicken.The miso soup was instant, but considering the price, I can't complain.It's cheaper than surrounding hotels (4,900 yen per night including breakfast on a travel site), but considering the price, it was a very good stay experience.I stayed here because I had heard good reviews from the owner of a nearby izakaya (Rokumonsen), and he was right.

Hotel a little far from the stationWelcome coffee is provided.Since it came with a card, I thought I would use the card key to enter the room, but I got the key! The type that turns.It's a typical business hotel with a washlet in the room.It's good to have pants pressure.Unfortunately, there is no outlet near the bed.There are two coin laundry machines, ice makers, and vending machines on the second floor.A free breakfast is included, including bread, onigiri, and simple side dishes.

I stayed there last year during the Mito Komon Walking Marathon and was able to use the room until the afternoon on Sunday, which was a great help! The front desk staff was courteous. The plan is very good, and it's close to the venue and starting point, making it easy to get around, so I'm making reservations again this year.Last year, it was a fried side dish for my morning lunch. Since I'm running, I think fish, meat, and eggs are better. Last year, I think there were many people who said they couldn't eat fried food before running a marathon and didn't eat it. Or, I thought it would be nice to have a buffet-style breakfast where you can get whatever you want.

Some may feel the rooms are a little small.I prefer a slightly smaller room, so it's good.The soundproofing of my P point is fine and I can hardly hear the sound of my neighbor.I can hear the sound of my neighbor's foot or hand hitting me when I turn over in my sleep, but I don't hear any snoring.The room was clean and I felt it was good value for money.The only thing that bothers me is that they charge 500 yen for parking, but I guess it is the cheapest coin-operated parking in the area, so I guess it can't be helped.I will look for a hotel that does not charge parking fees.The room has everything you need.I will stay here again when I visit Mito.

Some people may find the cabin a little small.I like a slightly smaller room, so this is a good idea.My P point soundproofing is fine and I can hardly hear the noise next door.*When the person next to me turned over and touched my foot or hand, I could hear a little noise, but I didn't hear any snoring.The room was clean and I felt the cost performance was good.I'm only concerned about the 500 yen parking fee, but if you look at the nearby coin parking lots, I think it's the cheapest.*We will look for accommodations that do not charge basic parking fees.The room has everything you need.I would like to stay here again if I go to Mito.
