The Metropolitan

The stay was quite comfortable. It was a little dangerous to bring a 2 or 3 year old child running around all the time, but it shouldn't matter if the child is older.

Self-service check-in and check-out. I didn't see any service staff the whole time, which was a very novel experience. The room is very large, it is a two-bedroom and two-living room apartment. The split-level design of the living room is a bit confusing. In fact, the size of a normal living room is enough for a large family to live in. The hygiene is slightly worse than other hotels in Japan, but it is acceptable. Towels and toiletries are provided in sufficient quantities. There is also a Japanese garden near the downstairs, which is marked on the map. You can go there when you have time. The disadvantage is that you cannot store your luggage at the self-service check-in. You must leave with your luggage at 11 o'clock, otherwise the door will not open. The luggage storage at Hakata Station is often full, so it is recommended to arrange the itinerary reasonably if you want to play around the surrounding area after checking out.
