Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel has a fantastic location, just near the main train station and surrounded by numerous restaurants, making it a great base for exploring. The rooms were okay but felt a bit small, especially compared to other twin rooms I've stayed in. The service was not ideal, as it felt a bit indifferent at times, although some staff were helpful with local information. Overall, I think it offers decent value for money, but there's room for improvement in several areas.
The hotel offers a good value for money, with a convenient location just minutes from the station. The rooms are small but have everything I needed, keeping it affordable. The service was hit or miss; some staff were friendly, while others seemed indifferent. Overall, the dining options could have been more varied, but the amenities were decent for the price.
I recently stayed at this hotel, and while there were some great aspects, I also found a few areas that could use improvement. The location is fantastic, just a minute away from the main train station, making it super convenient for travelers. However, the room cleanliness left a bit to be desired, especially with some dust and dirt on the ceiling. The service was lacking as well, with staff seeming indifferent to our issues. All in all, it's a decent choice for the price, but there are definitely some drawbacks.
My stay at this hotel was quite enjoyable, thanks to the fantastic location right next to the train station and close to downtown Kagoshima. The staff was very friendly and helpful, which added to the experience. However, the room I got was a bit small, and the air conditioning didn't work as well as I hoped during the summer heat. Overall, it's a decent place at a good price, but I wish the dining options were a bit more varied.
I had a decent stay at this hotel, which is perfectly located just a short walk from downtown Kagoshima and right next to the JR station. The air conditioning was a lifesaver in the summer heat, but I did find the room a bit on the smaller side and could've used a more thorough cleaning. The staff was generally helpful, although I wished they were friendlier. Overall, it was good value for money given the location and amenities.
