Good and Bad
Pros:

The hotel with the best view of the beach, a very friendly staff.. I could feel the freshness of the beach when I woke up in the morning and opened the window.

Cons:

The hotel should use sewer traps to stop the smell coming up from the sewers..

Great place, surely come back here.
Pros:

Perfect location: near the beach and Naminoue shrine. 15 minutes from Naha Bus station and asahibashi station.
Huge supermarket AEON in 2 minutes (where you can use a microwave).
Very quiet BUT we stayed here in winter - not in the top season.

Large clean room with very comfy beds (also fridge, hot water in a shower/bath).

Cons:

WiFi connection is good for a vacation (around 36/36 mbps), but if you need a high speed connection you have to think about this place.
Also there is no microwave in a room, be ready to visit AEON for it))

Comfortable and super clean accommodation in good location.
Pros:

Comfortable and super clean accommodation in good location. Although we had no personal contact to the hotel management, everything was explained and prepared perfectly. Also, due to ongoing facade/roof refurbishments (windows were protected with plastic material, but could be opened), that were not disturbing at all, we received a cookies present that we thought was very nice and considerate. Thank you very much for it!
Koji of Nijiiro Café next door offers delicious fresh dishes. We specifically loved the clam chowder and mango curry. :-)
