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.
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 On trio.com it had pretty high ratings, though the Google reviews seem a bit outdated.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.
The location in Kumamoto is ambiguous to evaluate, but the service of the old men is really good, and the facilities are old but clean. However, the price is expensive compared to the facilities.
It was nice that the hotel was adjacent to a shopping mall. It was clean and the staff were nice.
