The best part this hotel was probably how close it was to both the JR Hakodate Station and the Matsukaze tram stop. The breakfast buffet was good and it was convenient to have toiletries provided for me not only in my room, but also strewn out on a table on the first floor in case those in my room weren't enough. However, the room itself felt cramped and I had trouble with the hot water too. Whether in the sink or in the shower, when I turned on the water, it would start out at room temperature but only ever get hotter and hotter. Even when I turned the temperature dial to the lowest point, the water was still scalding, and this made taking a shower and washing my hands pretty painful. Besides that, the air conditioner made too much noise for me to fall asleep with it on, and occasionally there was this loud and abrupt drilling sound coming from outside my room. The hotel staff were still really accommodating and the place is right next to a convenience store, so getting midnight snacks is no problem. This hotel will do if you want to explore Hakodate for a day or two, but if I were you I'd skip the shower during my stay here.
