The location was less than a 5 minute drive from the airport and the base. There was a grocery store and two 7-Elevens within walking distance. Only thing that would be beneficial is a change machine for the laundry, since it is ¥100 coin-only.

私、娘、母と3世代旅行。それぞれ一部屋づつとりました。80歳の母は、コード入力しての鍵の解除はかなり難しかったので、最初からこちらが引き受けて、一旦入室してからは、チェックアウトまで部屋から出てきませんでした。翌朝、かなり快適だったようで、ホテルを絶賛していました。

I have never stayed in a hotel like this (each room is a separate shipping container that has been converted to a hotel suite). I found the room to be quiet and very comfortable. I chose it for its convenience to the Air Station, which you can walk to in about 5 minutes. Laundry is onsite and easy to use. Free coffee/espresso. Good WiFi. Meal vouchers are provided (one per day). I would definitely stay here again, and I recommend it to those traveling to the Iwakuni area.

We stay at The Yard for 8 nights. Our unit was clean, the bed was comfortable and the office employees were very friendly. We appreciated the frozen “light meals” that were included in our very reasonable room rate. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. Our only complaint would be that the completely asphalted property has very poor drainage, so when we had an extremely rainy day our shoes got soaked walking onto the property to access our unit.

Room was a little cramped but very comfortable. The bed was firm and comfortable. The bathroom was excellent but small. It was clean and clean towels were provided every day. The location was excellent, close to MCAS Iwakuni and close to the city center. The provided meals were frozen microwaveable dishes that were tasty but only providing frozen meals was disappointing but you are close to a convenience store and not far from many amazing restaurants.
