10/10 Exceptional

Great Stay

Great hotel for two travelers who want to experience a Japanese hotel. I felt very safe traveling alone with my son. I felt very safe with restrooms down the hall and showers on the first floor. We brought a charger with multiple ports as there was only one outlet. The bus stop is a few easy blocks away.

It was a nice quiet area. The room was over nice. But there was a slight smell to the room.
Mason, 20-night trip

6/10 Good

Area is nice and quiet, and there are convenience stores nearby and even a small Yakiniku place a short walk away. Biggest issue I had was the showers, which were poorly ventilated and had visible mold/mildew and damaged fixtures. Overall, a decent stay for the price, though the poorly maintained showers would make me hesitate to return, even with the lower prices.

6/10 Good

I stayed here for 11 days. Since It was an emergency, I had no other choice. First week was okay, I think I had quite the enjoyable stay, with the exception of the bathroom and the shower. Shower is extremely dirty, and honestly you should get your own bath towel since they charge for it. You should be well prepared and have your own stuff ready unless you wanna pay for it. This is also, the worst place to get sick, especially in the winter. Have an extra set of clothes ready, and a blanket. Other than that, I think you should be fine. Oh, but if you're carrying a heavy and/or big luggage, They only have stairs here, and it's pretty narrow to climb up with it, so be very careful. I think this place otherwise, is a very good place to stay for a short period of time, like 3 to 5 days. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, with the exception of the bathroom being shared, and the shower as well.

2/10 Poor

To start of with the good, I think that the staff that we met were helpful despite their lack of English communication skills. However, for the amount that we paid for this "hotel", it was definitely a huge rip off. To start off, the thumbnail is misleading/non-existent at this point. The lobby area is blocked off and guests cannot use this area. Secondly, the rooms are really small, and arguably worse than even some capsule hotels despite the price they charge; we booked for a room meant for three, but the room was so narrow that luggage cannot be opened, the walkway becomes blocked and it feels unfair that they charge a room for three people for a room that clearly is meant to fit one person as a capsule room. This is even made more evident in that the room only has a single electric outlet for guests to use. Internet is also unreliable, and the description forgets to mention that washrooms are communal and is never mentioned on their expedia posting. They also did not mention that their laundry amenities is not free. Finally, some of their amenities do not work. For example our refrigerator was not working, as well as our thermostat. TLDR - Room is overpriced, description of their property is misleading, and property is rundown and amenities damaged.

You get what you pay for

The rooms are cramped. Feels like a prison cell by the 3rd night. Beds are very uncomfortable. Pillows are flat. But the hardest part was having to go up a floor to reach a toilet. Definitely not enjoyable in the middle of the night. Hotel staff was great. Location was excellent, near bus and train stops. Amazing price. But we struggled staying there for 5 nights.

Bon logement. Les parties communes sont nettoyées tous les jours. Mal isolé donc on entend beaucoup le bruit du couloir. Un peu excentré donc beaucoup de temps dans les transports.

Great place to stay. Rooms were nice and clean. Only downside is that the shower and bath areas could be renovated/updated to be cleaner.
Raymond, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

The most disgusting “hotel” I have ever seen. I had body fluid stains on my bed sheets when I checked in and was handed linen to change the sheets MYSELF when I asked for the linen to be replaced. The bathrooms were unsafe due to excessive black mould, it’s absolutely disgusting the state of them. No signs of cleaning in the 5 nights I had to endure in that dirty place. The staff were never helpful or denied being staff even though I saw them come out of the staff room when I had enquiries. Do not stay there.

市區內可接受的便宜住宿(青年旅館)

位於市區的青年旅館,有先看之前的評論,留意到16:00過了CHECK-IN時間才會有人,所以安排在16:00過後抵達,沒有什麼問題! 房間屬於狹長型,空間不太大,但簡單入住一晚,還可以~ 公用廁所/沖澡地方還算方便,淋浴間有3間,整體評估起來還可以接受! 要求不太大的話,覺得可以參考!
