Pros:

The staff were friendly and welcoming. It's close to the station.

Cons:

Not like the pictures. There was mold, dirt, the floor was sticky. The room was cold because the windows were thin but we didn't feel safe turning the air conditioner on because it was full of mold. If you only want somewhere to sleep, maybe this place is okay. But we couldn't imagine ourselves coming back here after a long day of exploration. We stayed somewhere else.

Pros:

Estaba cerca de la estación de metro de kanamecho, quizás no es tan central pero esta bien conectado.
Estaba limpio y contaba con lo necesario para una buena estadía.

Cons:

La verdad es pequeño, especialmente el baño, si son muy altos no creo que se les haga cómodo.
La habitación esta en el tercer piso y no tiene ascensor.

Nice and comfortable! Would stay here again!
Pros:

Everything was nice and neat next to one another. It was nice and clean, and the bed was so comfortable! The shower was a tad confusing at first, but figured it out in no time! Staff were extremely friendly through messages and checking in was such a breeze.

スタッフの対応はとてもよかったけど施設は残念。
Pros:

駅から近く交通便ではとてもよかった。
わからないことなどメッセージで聞いたときにすぐに返信をしてくれたので助かった。

Cons:

シャワーカーテンがついていなかった。
IHがあるのに包丁、まな板などがなくて不便だった。
換気扇のせいなのか小虫がたくさんいてがっかりだった。
プロジェクターがあってよかったけど、地上波が見れたら尚いいと思った。
