침대사이즈가 커서 좋았고 조식도 맛있었어요. 사우나 시설도 좋았으나 타월 비치가 안돼 불편했어요.

Comfort Hotel Matsuyama
Very servicable business style hotel with decent breakfast (however don't expect gourmet at these prices!!). A bit far from shopping and eating, tho still many choices within 15-20 min walk. 15 min walk from Matsuyama City station (nb this is NOT the JR Station). Good access to trams.
