とても残念
Pros:

善光寺に近く、チェックアウトまで駐車も
出来て良かった

Cons:

清潔さに欠ける
浴室天井は黒カビ、擦れば簡単に取れるレベルなので
掃除がイマイチ。洗面浴室周りも汚い
ベッド上の懐中電灯も埃
極め付けは窓が開けっ放しのままでした

Great value for money. Located at a very quiet area but still near all that's needed
Pros:

Although the hotel is a bit far from the city center, it's not a super long walk, I'd say around 15-20min, and there's a lot of hidden places you can explore while you walk around. There's also buses from the station to the hotel and back, and the bus stop is around 3min walking distance from the hotel. It is located in a very quiet area, but during the day you can find a lot of nice stores and a small bakery very nearby (near the bus stop) - I had a delicious mellon pan there. There are also nice restaurants nearby. The hotel is big and quiet. My room was spacious enough, it was clean and very comfortable and I had all the amenities I needed for a night stay. The staff didn't speak fluent English, but they all had translating devices, so I had absolutely no trouble understanding them (and the other way around). They were really nice and very helpful. They dealt with my luggage transfer request very promptly and professionally and all went super well: my luggage arrived the destination next day in perfect condition. They also kept my luggage for a while after checkout, so I could enjoy my last hours in the city luggage free. I had a great experience here, and I think it was good value for money. I would no doubt stay here again.

Cons:

I have nothing negative to say about this hotel.

古い高級なホテル
Pros:

朝食は美味しかったです。一階ロビーも高級感があり非常に良かったです。

Cons:

反面宿泊する部屋は長年リフォーム
もしていないのかかなり古く痛んでました。総評としては宿泊場所としては悪くありませんが、最近できた駅前のホテルの方が良いのではと思います。
