ファミリー向けは要考慮
"家族旅行として宿を探していてここのホテルに行きついたが、チェックインしてラブホテルと分かった。 子供に見せれない物(コンドーム、グッズの自販機、テレビつけた直ぐにトップ画面にエロ画像)があったので、子供同伴の時は配慮を頂きたかった。 部屋の広さ、ベッド、バスは広く非常に素晴らしい！ ビジネスホテルと違い、トイレと浴室は別なのも高評価。 アメニティのレンタルが充実しており女性ウケは良かった。 浴室の排水溝にヘアーが溜まっており排水の効きが悪かったので清掃をお願いしたいのと、透けガラスなので年頃の子供がいる場合は注意が必要。"

Great Service & location
"The hotel was in a great location, close to the station and Bikan district. All staff are so friendly and can speak English. The room was very comfortable and clean. It would have been great if they provided a bottled water and had more lifts rather than only one lift. No hesitation to recommend ..."
