Great value for fabulous views of Sakurajima and access to hotel hot spring
Pros:

The view to Sakurajima volcano was amazing. The rooms were comfortable and clean and the property is good value for money. The staff were always available and happy to assist in any way. Definitely recommend.

Cons:

While the location was further from the station than we anticipated it was an easy bus ride, and the hotel also runs a regular shuttle. Taxis are also readily available and relatively cheap.The property is a bit dated but great value for what you pay.

Awesome View
Pros:

Awesome view of Sakurajima from a 'volcano view' room. I thought the car parking was down the road, but is on site which was good.

Good for the price and close to the ferry terminal
Pros:

It's close to the ferry terminal (about a 5min drive), they have a convenience store inside the hotel and across the street and they have a nice udon noodle shop across the street. They also have luggage storage if you arrive before check in times and you can store your luggage after you check out if you're waiting on the ferry.

Cons:

I rode a motorcycle there and used the paid parking on site (it's a reasonable rate), but ran into an issue when leaving with the ticket reader. The ticket reader would not read my ticket so I had to pull off the side and allow the cars behind me to go as I called for help (press the "HELP" button on the machine and someone from the hotel will come outside to meet you).

This was a bit time consuming and a little embarrassing because the locals in the cars behind me we're probably thinking, "Stupid foreigner can't even use a ticket reader correctly." HOWEVER, the hotel staff made it right and let me leave without paying to say "sorry about that."
