Great place for a week trip
Pros:

Great location, by the beach and the pier. Close to the few restaurants that are located in kure beach. Very clean, large space, good water pressure in the shower, very kind staff.

Cons:

Sand on floors but it’s the beach so it’s okay.

7/10
Pros:

Prime location , fair pricing .

Cons:

This is verbatim- private review I sent to host - with no response from them.

Hi,

Pertaining to room # 3 - checkout .

First, thank you for hosting my family. My wife, our two-month-old daughter, and I truly enjoyed our stay and had a great opportunity to explore the city. Overall, we had a good experience.

The check-in process was seamless from start to finish, parking was simple and convenient, and the location is excellent. Those three things made the trip very enjoyable and stress-free.

I did want to provide a few pieces of private feedback that I hope are helpful. Since the building is older, I would encourage making pest control a top priority throughout the year. Upon checking into the room, we noticed a few small spider webs, a couple of spiders, and several roaches that we ended up killing ourselves. We found them in both the living room and bedroom areas. It may be related to the window A/C units, which could provide easier access, but I wanted to make you aware.

Also, while the room was generally clean, we did notice that two of the towels provided appeared to be dirty. It wasn’t a major issue—we simply set them aside and used the clean ones—but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Overall, I would rate our stay a 7/10. The biggest strengths were definitely the smooth check-in process, convenient parking, and prime location. With a few property updates, consistent pest control, and a little more attention to room preparation, I believe the experience could easily be even better.

The only reason I mention the pest issue with extra emphasis is because we were traveling with our two-month-old daughter. It would have been a nightmare if she had been bitten by a spider and had experienced a negative reaction.

Thank you again for your hospitality and for hosting our family. We genuinely appreciate it, and despite the concerns mentioned above, we would certainly consider staying with you again in the future.

Do not stay here. The hotel will not care if you are dissatisfied.
Pros:

Location was good. Beds were decent.

Cons:

Our Internet was horrible. We could not even watch tv at all, it constantly froze.We never got fresh towels. Room was not clean up to hotel standards. Bathroom doorknob was coming off. Shower was so tiny. The table in our room was wobbly and rusted. A lamp chain broke and the light was useless. The sofa bed was awful. The out door shower faucet was used by the cleaning staff and not fully ready for hotel guests. I could not believe our stay had so many issues and when I complained to the hotel about it. They offered nothing to make up for all of our problems. When I called hotel staff number, it got cut off and their internet wasn’t working and they couldn’t even offer suggestions for my questions.
I was highly disappointed in our stay and would
Not recommend anyone staying here.

This honestly would’ve been a great stay if they knew how to properly clean. We were furious about having dog feces unde
Pros:

The property itself always very aesthetically pleasing and spacious.

Cons:

Unfortunately, our room had a bad smell. We realized the next morning that there was actually dried dog feces under our bed on a mat.
