Thank you so much for all your flexibility and consideration.
I appreciate your help.
It takes 10 minutes to walk from Sakuramachi Kumamoto Shopping Mall.
It's nice to have an arcade shopping street near the hotel.
The hotel facilities looked old, but overall they were good and the staff were very friendly.
The location is good as it's near the downtown area, but the building itself is old and has a charming atmosphere. The front desk is open 24 hours. It's a shame that the amount of hot water in the bath is not very strong.
I booked this place last minute while traveling on a budget. On trio.com it had pretty high ratings, though the Google reviews seem a bit outdated. Check-in was a little late (4pm), but aside from that everything went smoothly. Wi-Fi worked fine, and there was staff on duty 24/7. If you’re not expecting luxury but want something clean and well-located, this hotel is a great choice.
It's really great. Even I, who can't speak any Japanese, managed to check in without any problems.
The hotel is a bit dated, but considering the price, it was a truly satisfying stay. The location was also very close to the city center, and there was a convenience store right next door, which was nice.
