Quick check-in provided me with a luggage dolly, which was much appreciated. Proximal to every flavour of Oita main city; Oita Station is just a 10 minute walk away, the shopping district (shotengai) is in between the station and the hotel, and the night life area is just across the street (Miyako district). Excellent room: spacious, comfortable, good sized television, chair with castors. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was, in my opinion, especially the shower, was the most satisfying I have experienced in Japan- simply, superb water pressure operated by a single lever faucet mixer.
The comforter (photo attached) was stained with what looked like specks of blood; so that wasn’t too great. Being a smoking room, I guess it couldn’t be helped that the smell of tobacco would occasionally waft into the room, but it wasn’t at all as bothersome as it sounds.
