残念
Pros:

室内と大浴場がきれいだった。

Cons:

エアコンをつけるとずっと異音がして、消すと暑く、全く眠れなかった。トイレを流したあと、排水の臭いがあがってきて、とても臭かった。カーテンを空けたら真横が駐車場でカーテンは開けられない。とにかくエアコンとトイレの臭いをどうにかしたほうがいいと思います。

Close to Kumamoto Station
Pros:

Parking is available in a building next to the hotel. Breakfast is ok, and the onsen, though small, is clean. The hotel is within a short walking distance of Kumamoto Station, where a wide variety of restaurants can be found.

Cons:

The room is somewhat dated in its decor.
