While it took a bit to figure out how to send my checkin luggages (one being a snowboard carrier) transported via Yamato Transport to KIX airport, the staff helped a lot filling out the forms for me and made sure the luggages would arrive the day I checkin for my flight. Public bath was a much needed amenity and same with washer/dryer. Needless to say, the room was comfy but maybe on the small side if there’s 2 or more travelers. Transport to various sights was most convenient by bus.

-I don't like see through door toilet. -My room's next to the railway, it's very noisy. First train woke me up at 5:30 -Too many noisy Chineses walk and talk at the hallway at night time. -Public bath is Narrow and small space. Lay out is very terrible, locker is next to the sink, crowded time there's not enough space even stand up and open locker.

The staff were wonderful, and the room was clean and comfortable. We only stayed one night but wished we had booked a longer stay. The breakfast buffet was excellent and absolutely worth it. The location is very convenient, with a bus stop right outside and plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

We liked the hotel but noisy in the hallway with other guests talking at night. The restaurant was ok- needed to be where other restaurants are. I would stay at the other locations. Though we had access to a supermarket. Though the staff is great!
