I booked a single room on the 3rd floor. It was one of the cheapest rooms going around that was not a dorm room or a capsule hotel. I was also only staying overnight, so it was adequate for my needs.
The good:
- Excellent location - near the castle, nightlife, restaurants and supermarkets
- Nice and friendly staff
- Cheap
- You get a TV, robe, slippers, reliable wi-fi and toiletries
The bad
- The bathroom doesn’t seem clean. It smells of mold and it is visible on the tiles, sink and shower curtain. There is obvious ventilation issues with the steam being trapped in the bathroom. The whole third floor actually smells of mold with the laundries located there. If you are sensitive to mold, I would avoid it.
- parking is only available for cars 155cm and under. I had a boxy hatchback from the rental company which didn’t fit. You will need to pay 1000 yen at the parking lot behind the hotel for overnight parking till 11am. After that it’s 100yen per half hour, so it’s still quite cheap.
All in all, I would stay there again if only overnight. Anything a bit longer, I would stay somewhere else as the bathroom would be problematic for me.
