位置十分方便，附近有很多食肆和商店，即便是凌晨也能購物。房間空間很大，光線充足，提供的物品很齊全，房內的空調、廚房的電器和餐具雖然不是新的，但保養的不錯，床舖整潔沒有灰塵。但浴室的抽濕狀態不太理想，淋浴間的積水就算已抽乾，但浴室內還是很潮濕。整體上是很不錯的，值得再次入住。

駅近くで快適！

駅が近くてとても動きやすかったです。必要なものがあれば近場でなんでも購入出来ますし、住んでいるような感覚で気軽に滞在できました。タオルは小さめでしたが、2日目から2枚ずつ置いて下さったので問題ありませんでした。宿泊日が近くなるとスタッフからメールで連絡があり、LINEやカカオトークでの連絡もできるので滞在中も安心でした。チェックイン時は簡単な日本語で対応もしてくださいましたし、チェックアウトは一応LINEで連絡をしましたが、荷物を預ける予定がなければそのまま出るだけです。コスパも良いのでまた次も利用すると思います！

家族3人で宿泊。グレードアップして頂けロフト付きのお部屋を広々使えたこと、部屋に洗濯機も備え付けだったので便利でした。 シャワーを順番に使っていたら、1人目2人目は良かったのですが3人目で途中でお湯が出なくなり(もしかして時間が遅いとお湯が出なくなる？)とても寒い思いをしました。 あとはチェックアウトの際にフロントの方がおらず、LINEとメールで連絡しました。 支払済で追加料金が発生するようなことともなく問題なかったのですが、事前にチェックアウト時間を連絡しておけば良かったなと思いました。
