The staff are foreigners and speak only broken Japanese.I don't understand Japanese very well, so they won't hand over my luggage.Even though I told them my name and company name, there was one spot that didn't have it, and I asked if the package there was different, but they said it wasn't...When I asked him to show me the invoice, he didn't seem to understand and just tilted his head...Well, it's no good, I can't receive my luggage unless the Japanese staff comes.For some reason, around 7pm, foreigners were making a lot of noise at the restaurant.Well, if you don't mind, that's it.For some reason, I feel like I'm being made fun of and it makes me angry.

The room is small but cleanThe biggest problem is that the walls are extremely thin, and you can hear the sounds of your neighbors and their conversations.I couldn't calm down at all, so I turned up the TV and went to bed.Well, the person next to me might have been able to hear the TV.I don't feel at ease anyway, so I have to be careful.I am satisfied with the breakfast, but I don't want to stay there anymore.

I don't know, but someone who seems to be a staff member is in the kitchen for hygiene reasons😞⤵️⤵️

The room is small and the walls are thin, so you can hear conversations in the next room. There is a large public bath, but there is only one, so men and women must alternate. Women are only allowed to use the facility from 20:30 to 22:00. Only men can use the morning bath. There is no resident staff at the front desk during the day.Late at night, I heard an alarm going off in the hallway, so I called the front desk and they said, "Yes, I understand."The only advantage of staying here is the location right in front of the station.

My family of three stayed in a Japanese-style room.Although smoking is allowed in the room itself, it doesn't smell like cigarettes and has a clean impression.The WiFi was also fast, probably because there weren't many people using it.Extension cable required.There is only one key per room, so neither of us has freedom, so if we leave the room, someone else will open the door for us. Quite inconvenient.My family didn't like it, so I smoked outside, but the smoking area was also outside, so it was cold.I went to the public bath near my room, but it was lukewarm and cold.One large public bath is open to men and women at different times.In terms of cleanliness, I thought that women would not think of it well.There was a lot of variety for breakfast, but it wasn't very hot and the curry was cold, so I was a little disappointed.The staff at both the reception and cafeteria were foreigners, so although they seemed a little hesitant, I didn't feel any malice or inappropriateness, so I thought they were working hard.The Japanese person who answered the phone also said that he had a bad experience lol.I have some complaints, but it's worth the price, and overall I'd say it's about average.

It's good that this business hotel has a large public bath. The men's and women's baths change depending on the time, so be sure to check the times.We will be happy to assist you in front of Arakawaoki Station.

There is a free welcome drink and dinner (curry and rice), and the lobby, rooms, and other facilities are kept clean.One, when I wanted to go to the public bath, I was unable to enter because it had a time system (men and women switched). That's where I lost a little point.

Things might go smoothly if one Japanese staff member was always present.

We stayed for one night at Countdown on New Year's Eve. This is by far the best hotel I've ever stayed at.Regarding the quality of the room, it is not good considering the price range. The only employees are foreigners, but the customer service was good.On New Year's Day, I took a freezing shower in a bath that only had cold water. Of course, both the public bath and the shower in the room use water.I thought the breakfast would be the same at all hotels, but it disappointed me in a bad way.

Stayed for one night on a Saturday and Sunday at the end of November. Non-smoking twin room(2 adults and 2 preschoolers)The fee is 150 million yenIt's Saturday and Sunday, so is the price like this?There are 4 parking lots, and if you park in the 4th parking lot (gravel), it will be quite narrow.The rooms are perfectly clean and non-smoking, so there's no smell of cigarettes!The only problem is that the bed and toilet are too close...Also, the toilet and bath are so small that it's difficult to fit a child in (I think it would be quite cramped for a large man).The one-drink service alcohol was the best! !Since it's right in front of the station, there are several pubs nearby and a convenience store about a 1-minute walk away.At 3 o'clock at 3 o'clock, I came to the "Jijijijijijijijiji" like a mysterious fire alarm.An alarm in some room?

It's conveniently located in front of Arakawaoki Station.The room is clean and comfortable with a bath.There are several izakayas in the area, so it's a good place to go for a drink, but you'll have to walk a bit to find a place to eat.

There are no problems with the appearance of the hotel or the staff's response, which is very good. but…I was surprised at how thin the walls were.The person next to you is taking a bath or toilet, orYou can clearly hear what is being said on your mobile phone. I stay at many hotels for work, but it's quite expensive for a relatively expensive hotel.The walls are the thinnest ever❗Couples should be careful (^-^;
