The large public bath was neither hot nor warm, and had just the right amount of hot water.I was satisfied with the many side dishes for breakfast.

Single use. The even numbered rooms faced west and the sunset over Mt. Tsukuba was beautiful. The room is spacious and clean, with an air purifier installed. The refrigerator also has double doors so you don't have to worry about the motor noise. The semi-double bed was comfortable, but the pillows were a little hard.The sofa, table, and number of outlets were easy to use and comfortable. The restaurant is available for takeout, but unfortunately it is closed on Sundays. There are many convenience stores and chain restaurants nearby, so it's not inconvenient.The breakfast buffet had a lot of variety considering it's a business hotel, and everything I ate was delicious.When I made an online reservation from the website, I received one coin that I could use at the vending machine.The parking lot was large and easy to get to, and the staff were very efficient.I highly recommend this hotel.

[Added on 2024/08/28]When I made a large serving of rice in a large rice bowl for breakfast, the surface of the rice was crispy. Those who make small, medium, and large portions of rice prepare the next batch of rice the last time you press the button, so new rice doesn't come out every time you press the button. It was a shame~♪⊂(^(工)^)⊃★4→★3 Demotion[Added on 2024/05/27]I usually use Route Inn at various places, but at Hitachinaka, breakfast usually starts at 6:30, but it starts early so it's not crowded. Also, the rice bowl is large, so it's easy to eat♪⊂(^(工)^)⊃[It's a shame that other restaurants have long lines for breakfast and overflowing rice bowls (lol)]

I use Route In frequently throughout the year.It's well kept, it has a small but large public bath, and it's nice to have breakfast.This place faces the national highway, and there are entrances on both sides, but you should be careful about entering from entrances that are not on the national highway side.The side adjacent to the national highway is noisy depending on the traffic volume.I was given a room on the 4th floor, but perhaps it was a Saturday and Sunday during summer vacation?I ended up on the same floor as an insane person.A pair of elementary school boys dash down the hallway (to a room beyond the elevator).A Japanese woman speaks loudly on her cell phone in the hallway at 2:30am.There was a group that had come by bus, and I came across about 30 people taking the elevator up from the first floor.(You can make a reservation...)If you are using the hotel for business on Saturdays and Sundays during summer vacation, please be aware of this when making a reservation, or you may end up on a strange floor...

I have used it before, and it was very easy to use.In particular, there was a handmade map of the surrounding area in front of the elevator, which was very helpful for me as I was thinking about meals. If I have another chance, I would like to stay there again.

It is a stable route in.However, I felt that the front desk staff was especially polite compared to other route inns.There is a map of nearby shops in front of the elevator on the 1st floor for your convenience. There are plenty of restaurants in the neighborhood, including chain stores, so you won't have any problems.There is a power outlet near the bedside, so you can easily charge it.

I'm glad to have a large bathtub in the bath, even though I'm on business. Breakfast is slow and delicious with a wide variety of menus.

This time I stayed in two route inns in different places in Japan. The rooms were basically the same in furnishings, bright and concise. Although the room was not big, it could still accommodate a 140cm wide small twin bed, a sofa and a small table. It was barely enough in the room. The 28-inch suitcase can be opened, but the bathroom is the smallest in Japan. The wash basin and small bathtub share the same faucet. This hotel also has a hot spring called....But compared with the Ke Gang store, this place is really exaggeratedly small. There are only 4 seats in the shower area, and only two seats in the washing and hair drying area. It is probably a bit crowded for 4-5 people in the hot spring pool.The breakfast is normal. There are many parking spaces in the hotel parking lot. Parking is easy. There are several restaurants nearby the hotel, which is about a 5-minute walk away. There are also restaurants open until 00:00. All in all, this price is still a good value for money hotel. .

It's a normal route in.I think he is somewhat new.There are many restaurants within walking distance.Convenience stores and pharmacy supermarkets are within walking distance.To enter the route in by car from Mito Station, turn right at the route in intersection and the entrance is about 10 meters away.The entrance is a little narrow, but there is a white signboard for the route in entrance.The inside of the hotel is generally clean.Breakfast has a lot of items, but there is no soup server.There are no paper napkins on the table or counter where you eat, so it's better to take them with you when you pick up your ingredients.Doutor's coffee machine is a new type, but compared to other Route Inn machines, the coffee feels weak. The coffee at the breakfast venue is stronger.No USB in the room.The shower temperature can be adjusted with one lever.It's a card key, but the room number is pasted on it with Tepra.The bathroom is large enough for about 10 people to bathe at the same time, and there is a shower space, but the mold on the ceiling is a bit worrisome.I was on the 3rd floor when I used it, but the seal inside the unit bath was broken every day and it smelled like sewage, but the ventilation fan was running so it was okay if I flushed a little water.There was no program listing for the wowwow channel on TV, so I had to press 9 on BS and check it each time.In the room facing the national highway, biker gangs still live there, and there are occasional flies.I was satisfied with the staff's response.

I stayed for one night in a comfort single (non-smoking).About 25 minutes walk from Katsuta Station. Walking in the rain was a bit tiring, but if it wasn't raining, it would be the perfect distance for people who like walking or to soothe themselves.The rain was the only unexpected thing.There are only a few buses going to Katsuta Station, and when I took one around 5:00 pm, it was about 10 minutes late...This was a complaint against Ibaraki Kotsu.
