Pros:

The hotel is close to the station and was really good value. Public bath was nice. Breakfast was basic but sufficient.

Cons:

The room I was in was quite dated and tired looking. The bed was harder than other hotels, and there was a bit of noise so I used ear plugs

一切都很順利，就是最好的旅行。
Pros:

雖然因為語言隔閡（就算有翻譯app,有時也會無法立刻即時溝通），在相互溝通上有一點小辛苦，但旅館全體職員非常熱心幫助，就算是外國旅客也能很放心的在這裡住宿，很開心第一個晚上是在這裡度過。

Cons:

沒有。
