I decided to check out a day early because of this but could find no one to give the key to.
Pros:

No hot water in bathroom or shower the first evening I arrived or the following morning. No staff available to report this to. No one answered the phone number I was given.

Cons:

No hot water in bathroom the first evening I arrived or the following morning. No staff available to report this to. No one answered the phone number I was given. I decided to check out a day early because of this but could find no one to give the key to. They refused to refund my second night, told me that the previous guest had not mentioned a problem with the hot water and that the maid had not reported a hot water problem when she cleaned the room. In other words, they implied I was lying. Will obviously not stay here again or recommend anyone else does.

Pros:

Clean, quiet room with comfy bed in convenient location.

Cons:

It was unstaffed - key was collected from the restaurant downstairs. I would have liked to leave my case for a few hours after checking out, but this was therefore not on the cards. The bathroom smelled very damp/musty, and I could find no means of turning off its light.

少し残念でした。
Pros:

ホテルの１階部分がレストランになっており、そこで食べ物をテイクアウトして部屋で食べられる点はよかったです。

Cons:

古めの建物でやむを得ない部分もあるかもしれませんが、少し暗さを感じるところでした。また、天井のあたりに蜘蛛の巣と穴があるところは、もう少し整えておいてもらえるとありがたかったです。金額に見合った感じではなかったように思います。
