Pros:

Less than 2 minutes' walk from Yamagata Station, with one public onsen and a wide spread of dishes at the complimentary breakfast (menu changes every day).

Even though the hotel was large, the rooms were quiet and I had a peaceful stay there.

The giant 24-hour MaxValu supermarket right behind the hotel was a big bonus where you could grab discounted fresh food that is nearing their expiry time.

Cons:

Bed was creaky for some reason; always squeaked when I turned while sleeping.

Onsen could also get crowded during peak period.

地點好、位置佳，性價比很高，住得非常舒適
Pros:

以免費的早餐來說算是滿豐富的，有肉有菜、沙拉、湯、飯、麵包，在寒冷的冬天可以不出門就吃飯很好。
大浴場也很不錯，印象中有4-5個位置可以洗漱。
房間就是一般的商旅，有點舊但是很乾淨，住雙人房行李箱半開，椅子一張，吃飯時另一個人要坐在床上。
位置在山形新幹線出來左轉下手扶梯前面那棟就是，算交通方便。
隔壁就是24小時的超市，非常便利，走路2分鐘也有7-11，隔壁的Richmond樓下就是Toyota租車，也很方便。

Cons:

停車場的工作人員不怎麼友善，有問過櫃台人員，車子是可以直接開進去停車，再計算停車費，但當我們車子開進去時，停車場的人員就開始放交通角椎，把所有平面車位都蓋起來，後來我們說明了是住客，他還問你們是今天晚上才住的嗎? 我說不是我們住了六天今天是第三天，我們第三天才開始租車。總之如果要停他們的停車場，需要跟那位停車場人員溝通才能停車，他也一直說日文。我記得平面車位比較少，停機械車位的話又要跟他溝通，後來我們選擇停對面的停車場，停一天600日幣(計算到24:00)
