設備は十分、でもベッド上段はおすすめしないかも

スタッフの方が親切でした。女性専用ドミトリーのベッド上段を希望して寝たので天井が近く、上の階のセミ・プライベートルームの方が深夜中ドタドタ歩き回っていた音であまり寝られませんでした。静かな方が上に泊まっていればそんなことはないのかもしれませんが…。バスタオルとフェイスタオルは無料で、化粧水まであって驚きました。シャワールーム、洗面台（こちらはお湯は出ない）、ドライヤーは十分な数でした。トーストとジャムの無料朝食もありました。 ドミトリールームや洗面所ルームに、少しでもイスがあればいいなと思いました。

knot

女性専用フロアがあるのに、シャワーと洗面台は男女共用でがっかり。 夜の時間帯にスタッフがおらず、女性専用フロア等出入りにセキュリティがなく、セキュリティ面ではないかなり不安。シャワーから出た時の段差で怪我する人がでそう。ロールが薄すぎて光がモロ寝床に入ってくる。和装を頑張るよりセキュリティその他もう少し頑張ってほしい

トータルで平均

すごく綺麗でした！アメニティも充実していました！ でも泊まってる人がうるさくてなかなか寝れませんでした。フロントの人がきちんと説明してくれているのかなというぐらい夜遅くまでうるさかったです。外国人も多いですがなんかテンションが上がった日本人がうるさいです。 朝食も人が多くパンやミルクがポーンと置いてある程度なので他で食べた方がいいと思います。 駅から近くコンビニもあって立地条件はすごく良かったです。夜なら一階が居酒屋さんなので外に出なくても大丈夫です。 人の少ない平日ならまた泊まりに行きたいです。
