部屋は清潔です。9階の西向きの部屋でしたが眺望が開けていてよかったです。 スタッフの対応は可もなく不可もなくでした。 素泊まりでしたので朝食は評価できません。 駐車場が近隣のコインパーキングの方が安いので、近くのコインパーキングを予め幾つか候補を探しておくと良いです。

フロントの男性スタッフがまったく笑顔なく、やる気のない対応だった。質問しても無視され、隣の女性スタッフが回答するような有様だった。 部屋のベッドはなかなか良かった。また、大浴場とサウナの利用があるのもよい。しかしながら、大浴場とサウナの利用が無料なのは1回のみで（2回目は有料）中学生以下は利用不可、土日祝日は20時30分までに入館する必要があり、21時には出る必要があるのは大きな不満。駐車場も立体駐車場なので出し入れに時間がかかり面倒。 西院駅に近く、1階にコンビニがあり、周辺に飲食店が多いことは良い点だが、フロントの応対や大浴場などの制限がとても残念だった。
