Caffe & Restaurant Grandeスタッフの教育をお願いします。

朝食付きを選択しましたが、朝食ビュッフェは値段相応でした。 一部のスタッフですが、料理があるので見てまわるのは良いと思いますが、それとなく見るのではなく、ずっと睨んでるのと言うぐらい人をガン見でした！これはありえません。 これから再度泊まったとしても朝食なしのプランを選びます。

部屋に謎のモーター音がしていたが、風呂場の換気扇だった。壁側のベッドだと響く。 朝食は600→900円に値上がりするそうだが、パンがロールパン一択で不満。鯖、卵、煮物、味噌汁、カレー、納豆など、米派には良いかも。 連泊で掃除やアメニティを追加しなければドリンクサービスが付きます。

便利實惠的住宿

旅館交通便利，也有停車場可以泊車。百貨、便利商店、餐廳都在附近，生活機能相當完備。旅館人員相當友善，房間整潔寬敞。但空調的涼度與免治馬桶的噴嘴清潔程度可以加強的話會更好。早餐也不錯。整體來說是個很適合過一晚的住宿選擇。

Accommodation with a convenient location

The accommodation is close to Wakayama train station, with offsite car parks. The staff was friendly. There's a convenience store downstairs, and many dining options and department stores near the train station. The room was spacious and clean, however, the conditions of the A/C and the cleanliness of the bidet have room for improvement. The breakfast provided is good and tasty. Overall it is a good place for an overnight stay in Wakayama.
