Compared to new hotels that have opened nearby, the size and furnishings are starting to pale in comparison. Also, there are not many twin rooms available and reservations cannot be made.I think the food is very good, but the 1,600 yen breakfast seems expensive, so I end up going to Doutor next door or Saint-Marc, which is a 2-minute walk away.However, the location is great, as you can go out to Hirome Market without needing an umbrella.

The location isn't bad and it's convenient...but the building is old and the bathrooms are full of mold. I think it will look better if you do a little more mold removal.I also think that cleaning is quite a hassle. When I was cleaning the room, I found broken earrings that had fallen out and my child was walking around barefoot, so I was horrified to think that they would have stepped on them.Also, there was hair stuck to the walls of the bathroom even though no one had entered it yet.

When booking this hotel the room I received was not what was in the picture. When I asked the front desk people about it they wanted to charge me an extra $100 to get the room that original reserved. I always came to this hotel because close to local family. Normally I lack of service and rudeness of the front desk slide but I have never been so upset with the rude attitude of the front desk girls that I have to leave a comment. If you stay here the location is great but the front deck girls are rude and unaccommodating. If you want to enjoy your trip and staying at this hotel make sure you have the least amount of interaction with these people as possible.

Stayed with family during summer vacation.We took a bus from the airport and arrived at the hotel smoothly on a flat road.There is an amenity bar in front of the front desk, and it is fully stocked with cleansing products, face packs, and carbonated bubbles!It's a twin room, so it's equipped with everything you need including a Refa hair dryer and iron, so you don't have to carry as much luggage!The shower head was also comfortable.At the front desk, we received pajamas, amenities, and toys for children to choose from.I made it into a dress-up sticker, so it was very useful during my trip!thank you!It was a unit bath because there was a bathtub, but the children seemed to enjoy the bath as well.The room was just the right size and it was easy to open the carry case.There were days when I was almost a shut-in due to Typhoon No. 10 and the shops in the area were closed, but it wasn't a big deal as I watched YouTube on TV and took a walk around the arcade.I had to extend my stay because my flight was canceled, but I booked a room with the same conditions online and told the front desk, and they let me stay in the same room.The amenity bar and referral service were good, so I would like to come back again if I come to Kochi again!The photo is the view from the room.

For residents living in rural areas of the prefecture,When I go to town, I stay overnight.This is my regular stay.In addition, this group of hotels is always available in Tokyo and other areas.As expected.
