Hotel is connected to the local shopping mall and train station so it was SUPER convenient. Room #746 was fine except the sofa bed was the worst I have ever seen. Unfortunately, I did not complain about it at the time, so the hotel could not attempt to rectify the situation. My son graciously slept in the bed for two nights, and it creaked and squeaked every time he moved. And be sure to note, this hotel does NOT have coin laundry. We found a place about 3 blocks/5 mins down the street. They even have a free nightly drink and curry and rice! If you don’t use the sofa bed and don’t need to do your own laundry, this hotel would work well.

駐車場はホテル宿泊者は最上階の7階まであがるひつようがあり、駐車場は古く、狭く現在の車の規格に合っていない。駐車場からホテルへの入り方もわかり辛い。コインランドリーはないので、徒歩5分の提携ホテルに出しに行かないとだめ。スタッフ、ホテルはきれい。客室のクーラーは古いため、温度調整がしにくい。ただし、スタッフの方は非常に親切に対応してくれました

Conveniently located within walking distance from JR Wakayama and in front of the bus station, hotel is well situated for travelling to other parts of Wakayama or within the city. Hotel is pretty old and rooms are small sized. Bathroom is pretty compact which is typical of Japanese hotels. Do not get a room near the lift as walls are thin and can hear the lift moving up and down. Rooms are actually quite dusty as there were visible dust balls on the tea packets. Staff at the Front Desk were helpful and friendly.

The front desk staff are super professional and go over and beyond by thinking about the customer's needs. There is a free curry rice dinner service as long as you are a hotel guest (whoa!). There is no microwave oven in the hotel, but if you bring your food to the front desk they will heat it for you!
