Isinomaki Apart Hotels

"This was the main hotel option for the area without breaking the bank - my expectations weren't that high but definitely surpassed. The staff were friendly enough although only really met them at checkin and out. Access was a bit ambiguous on arrival - I left my luggage in the carpark while I climbed the steep stairs to see where the reception was. There wasn't a step-free access to the rooms but there was a slightly better route for me to take to minimise the climb with bags. The walk up the hill from the station wasn't too far but was at an incline so worth a mention for those for whom this might be an issue and prefer to get a taxi. The building has quite a stark external appearance that is a bit reminiscent of a prison but very functional. The rooms have oldish furniture but very serviceable and everything you might need is there and clean. For the price and location it's amazing!!! I definitely appreciated having a break on stretching my budget as a solo traveller in comfort and well situated to catch the ferry to Cat Island and explore the town, including the poignant school ruins following the tsunami of 2011. The anime museum was closed at the time I was there but hadn't realised it was there anyway - would have explored had it been open as there were many characters around the town that gave a special vibe to the place that I was fond of. I thoroughly recommend this hotel for a short stay - it will meet all your basic needs. "
