- Staff is very friendly and helpful. They are able to speak English so communicating isn’t a problem! - I love the distance from Hotel to Station as it is a very very short walk! It’s close to Hiroshima station, so perfect if you need to take Shinkansen. - Unfortunately, this is where my partner and I were both not pleased: The building and the room are very murky/gloomy/old. The AC isn’t working so it was a struggle to relax and even sleep at night. The windows and walls are very thin, you could hear people walking by, talking despite not being loud, cars passing by, and even ambulance/emergency sirens. It was ridiculous. Hotel is close to the main road, so I guess sirens can be heard, but I was dreading to leave the hotel as sirens pass by every 20 minutes past midnight. Room is also very small, and the bathroom is just poor. - To be completely honest, we just couldn’t wait to get out of there. I’m super sorry, but will rate this hotel 2/5, and that’s me being generous.

Overall, basic standards of what I expected from APA Hotel, however the shower need a better curtain. Every time I got off the shower, floor was always wet from the water spilling outside the tub.

Having stayed in a few similar hotels near train stations in Japan, I found the rooms here just a bit smaller and not in quite as good condition as others (peeling wallpaper, windows won't open more than an inch, air conditioning not working). Staff were warm, friendly and welcoming, but I would not stay here again unless there was a renovation.

Good location!
Great location. It's right by the station and it's close to Hondori. Room was clean. Only thing I didn't like was that the power outlet between the beds has an annoying piece that sticks out and because of it, I couldn't plug my phone charger into it because my power block was too big for it.

Small, dark, friendly
The hotel staff is friendly and the location close to the train station. The hotel itself is very run down. Small, dark, and worn out, from the lobby to the rooms. The lot immediately adjacent to the hotel entrance is a fenced in lot with A/Cs and trash. The bathroom is tiny, even for Japan, more similar to a small boat’s bathroom than anything on land. There are better affordable options close to the station.

Rubbish, even for an APA hotel.
If you have to stay at an APA hotel in Hiroshima, go to the new one across the river from here. This property is old and tired and cramped (even by APA standards, which are walk-in closet sized to begin with). The newer properties this chain offers are much better (for the same price). Hallways are dim and unlit. As you open the window to get some fresh air, the sewage smells wafting in from the river are the last straw. Close to Hiroshima station. As always for Japan, staff is crisp and polite.

You get what you pay for. Bath is positively tiny. You hear your neighbors coming back late. Hotel works if you're not staying longer than a day (as salary men do when they miss their trains) but not a great spot for longer stays.
