Spacious room and great location
Pros:

Spacious and clean. Loved the inclusion of a laundry machine (and washing tablets!) Super friendly and helpful staff. Excellent location in between Kagoshima Chuo station and the Tenmonkan, so within walking distance to a lot of food and shops, but away from the noise and bustle.

Cons:

Even when all the lights were on, the room was a bit dim.

Amazing staff, location and rooms are very spacious.
Pros:

The room was spacious and we could do our own laundry in the room which was super convenient! Beds were comfortable and the location was super convenient. We ended up being stuck an extra day in Kagoshima due to the typhoon and the staff were incredibly accommodating and helpful

Cons:

It’s a minor detail but I agree with other reviews that state it’s a bit odd to have to go through several doors/walk through the common area to get to the bathroom sink after you use the toilet. It’s just a little odd but did not impact my stay

Good value, nice amenities in a Euro-style hotel walking distance from Kagoshima Chuo station
Pros:

fav Kagoshima Chuo reminded us favorably of hotels we've stayed at in Europe. It's contemporary, well-appointed, and affordable. I was a bit worried when I read the email instructions about the automated check-in, but when we arrived a bit after 3 in the afternoon, desk staff were available and ready to help us with the check-in procedures. That made for a smooth entrance. The beds were actually the most comfortable we've had in the last 2 weeks in Japan. Getting over a cold I managed to sleep a solid 11 hours the first night. The washing machine also has a dryer function that wasn't mentioned on the booking.com page, so that was an improvement over hang-drying our clothes. We walked with our luggage between the train station and the hotel without issue.

Cons:

One characteristic of European hotels that I've never appreciated is that the beds are provided with a duvet, but no top sheet. As a North American, I'm used to sleeping with a top sheet, The addition of a top sheet beneath a duvet gives me more control over my sleeping temperature than just a duvet. With a top sheet = cool/warm/hot. Without a top sheet = cool/hot. I don't really expect this hotel to accept my criticism and provide top sheets, but they'd step up into world class if they did.
We paid in advance for breakfasts. The breakfast menu was the same both days that we stayed. There were 5 options, one Japanese-style soup, one Japanese style sandwich, a fruit/yogurt/granola, bowl, and two different sizes of hot dogs. My wife and daughter both enjoyed the breakfasts, but I didn't eat either day. Nothing on this menu appealed to me in the morning.
The directions to the hotel provided by booking.com were wrong and led us to a parking lot down the street from the hotel, which was weird, because the hotel appears on a google maps search. Don't use the booking.com directions.

Tolles Hotel
Pros:

Top Lage! Der Bahnhof ist fußläufig sehr gut zu erreichen. Auch die Fährhäfen erreicht man zügig mit der Tram, die vor der Tür hält. Das Hotel ist modern eingerichtet. Im Zimmer befindet sich eine kleine Küchenecke mit Mikrowelle, Wasserkocher und einer Herdplatte, die im Schrank verstaut ist. Eine Waschmaschine mit integriertem Trockner ist ebenfalls vorhanden.
Praktisch war, dass wir unseren größeren Koffer dort 3 Tage abgeben konnten, als wir nach Yakushima gefahren sind.

Cons:

Die Betten sind sehr hart.
