Great place to stay! Unbelievable bargain!
I am currently staying here with my son, my wife is staying a couple miles away with her mom. We’ve been here for about a week, with one week left. This place is no frills, but a safe, clean place to stay. For the price, it is unbeatable and definitely 5 star deal. Staff is terrific. On our arrival, didn’t have internet (rookie mistake), and one of the staff members walked to the nearby station to meet us. Room has no furniture or towels. You share a shower room, restrooms, kitchen, etc. All other guests have been friendly and keep to themselves. Traditional Japanese bedding is provided for each person. (To my knowledge, no western style beds). Stores, restaurants, pachinko, cheap bike rentals are within easy walking distance. Rooms are quiet, clean, and private. We will definitely stay here again and would definitely recommended this hotel.

タクシーの運転手さんが『あの辺には宿泊施設が無い』と言っていましたので貴重な場所だと思います。 後、5000円以内で泊まれて駅もほど近い良い立地と思います。

和室に3人で泊まりました。駐車場が1泊700円で予約でき、日が当たらない場所だったので車内が暑くならず助かりました。部屋はもちろん、共同のトイレ・洗面所・シャワーとも清潔で、共同シャワーにはボディソープ・リンスインシャンプーのほか、個室ごとにエアコンがあり、快適でした。廊下や隣の部屋の音はよく聞こえてしまい、特に引き戸を閉める音がかなり響いてしまいます。部屋に小さな冷蔵庫があると良かったです。

急遽出発がズレ込み深夜の到着にも快く対応していただき、安心出来る素敵なスタッフがいます^^ 近隣に徒歩で5分も歩けば飲食街があり到着が夜中でも楽しめました。 清掃も、この料金でこのレベルは素晴らしいと思います! 駐車場は予約を入れた方がオススメです(´∀`)
