2-Star Hotels in Shinjo

Stayed for a night without having any of the hotel meals so will only comment on what I experienced. The hotel is situated in a very small town and it was decent considering Shinjo not being a rather popular destination compared to other parts of Yamagata. Free parking and the double room we stayed in was very huge for Japanese standards. Some facilities were old but still clean. WIFI was quite unstable though and some websites took very long to load. Staff at the reception were friendly and check in check out went smooth. There is practically nothing around the area so be prepared to go there with food if your meals are not included, and if you dont have a car. There is only a visible drug store walkable from the hotel, and I think a family mart convenience store some minutes away. We walked to a big supermarket, which was about 15 minutes walk from the hotel along the river.

Great place to stay, clean, with an onsen inside and full of nice people

外観及び内装も古いですが、その分周辺のホテルと比較しても安価で宿泊することが出来ます。 ホテルの建物の上部に設置されているネオンサインは一部故障しているため、新庄に到着したのが夜間だった場合、このホテルを見つけるのに少し苦労するかもしれません。各部屋はオートロック式ではなく全て手動です。チェックイン・チェックアウトの対応のスタッフは老齢の男性で、ゆっくりとした所作ですが決してのろのろしているわけではないため、特に接客対応に問題点があるわけではありません。 観光の拠点として利用した方がいいと思います（くつろぐ等、ホテルのサービスそのものを楽しむのはあまりお勧めできません）。 The exterior and interior of the hotel are old, but the price is lower than other hotels in the area. The neon sign at the top of the hotel building is partially out of order, so if you arrive in Shinjo at night, you may have some trouble finding the hotel. Each room is not an auto-locking system, but all manual. The check-in and check-out staff is an old man with a slow but not sluggish demeanor, so there are no problems with customer service. I think it is better to use this hotel as a base for sightseeing (I would not recommend enjoying the service of the hotel itself, such as relaxing).

I don't think it's the same as the route inn that has no particular features. There is a station front, but there was a considerable distance from the west exit of the ticket gate where I got off the Shinkansen at the back of the station (east exit) and to the other side. There are no other shops on this side and there is no convenience store, so when you go, it is recommended to go after buying what you need at the convenience store immediately after exiting the ticket gate.
