Ideal location, but not much facilities though. The hotel room is big with a fashionable western styled design. I stayed over for one night, arrived at Saturday night and left for Sunday morning. The busy Gaya Street makes it fun at Saturday night but the Sunday market can be very noisy as the market starts very early in the morning. All in all a pleasant stay!

It is a retro and old building, but it is clean and luxurious. The facilities are compact but not too small, and it was more than enough space to sleep. In addition to the wonderful building, the shopping mall is about a 5-minute walk away, and the night market and Sunday market are held right in front of the hotel, so I think the location is great for sightseeing. (Probably No. 1) Meals are not included, but there are many restaurants nearby, so it is not a problem! There is a Fugen restaurant on the block opposite, and I got hooked and went there every morning☺︎ The hotel's service is also excellent and they are flexible in their response. I plan to stay at this hotel again next time. *Currently under renovation in October 2024. There were no particular issues with noise or other issues.

Wow~ The lobby is currently under construction. When I went up, they carried my luggage, but after I checked out, they brought it down. The female staff was very friendly, but the male staff that was there at night were both really. Oh my. There were only two bath towels, so I asked if there were any face towels, and they laughed at me saying there weren't any. What is this? I'm at a loss. The hot water didn't come out, so I took a cold shower the night I arrived and fixed it the next day, but when I came out after fixing it, it didn't come out again at night. I don't recommend it. The elevator is too narrow.

My experience during my stay at the hotel was unsatisfactory. The wall socket is inoperative, necessitating that I charge my mobile phone near the entrance door. Additionally, the toilet lock is malfunctioning, and when I turned on the television, the image was unclear and distorted. The food that was served was cold.

The decoration of the room is okay, but the sound insulation of the room facing the street and the room is not good. The location is still very convenient!
