Comfortable stay in this clean hotel that serves great Kumamoto-style buffet breakfast. However, the bathroom vanity (sink and mirror) is outside the toilet, facing the twin beds. No on-site parking but you can easily park at the underground carpark that’s just a traffic light away from the hotel at a reasonable rate.

The hotel was conveniently located for me, as there is a huge bus station nearby with just 5 mins of walk. A dozen of restaurants are nearby and there are 2 arcade game centres just around the corner. The public bath was not as good as i expected and it was always crowded. I didnt use it as much but i think it could still be a good experience if you are visiting japan for the first time. I adore the resting area outside of the public bath. The area is equipped with microwave, small tables and seats. I bought food from nearby convenient stores and ate breakfast there daily. The room was on the larger than i expected. I was able to place my luggage on the table when i tidied my stuff. I was overall happy with my stay.

交通方便，服務親切
這次幫70歲的媽媽阿姨，安排了11天的北九州之旅，從阿蘇；由布院；別府；長崎，最後回到熊本，這家飯店有絕佳的位置，從櫻町巴士總站走出來，可以輕鬆的看到這間飯店，走路只要5分鐘，在新市街裡，旁邊就是7-11，一秒就能血拼吃飯，房間很乾凈，浴場非常讚，推薦大家。
