It was very close to the station at a very reasonable price, breakfast and dinner were provided, and there was also a public bath and sauna, so I could relax at a very reasonable price. I would like to visit again.
It was difficult to find the hotel because the only sign outside was in Japanese and the place looked deserted.
A passer-by took us in and I was surprised to find everywhere in semi darkness, the reason being that we had entered just before check in.
The room was spotless, warm and comfortable with both dinner and breakfast included on the price.
Very nice hotel, close to the train station. Quiet in the rooms. The afternoon/night parking attendant very helpful giving suggestion sightseeing in the area. The beds were a little hard for me. Walking distance from Himeji castle. Other than that, the location was easy access to everything.
I liked that this property was a short walk from the Himeji train station. If you wanted to buy groceries, the nearest stores were a good 15-20 minute walk away, but there were convenience stores nearby if needed. Lots of restaurants in the station area itself. The biggest negative that would be for this location is if you are a light sleeper, the train noise was very loud. Especially when the express shinkansen roared through Himeji station. I was able to sleep through all that, but when I was awake, I could really hear the roar of the trains. The area seemed safe and quiet.
Should be one of the cheapest hotels in Himeji area. Meals are provided but I felt like they're worse than in jail (I've never been to jail, though). If you're looking for budgetary hotel, this is the right place.
Extremely close to train and bus stations. Kind of old. Room smells moldy. But for this price and convenience, it’s fair enough given that the city itself is somewhat expensive now.
For the location and proce, there should be no complaint at all. Even include dinne and breakfast. What else can you ask for.

The room wasn’t what I expected. The bed was not comfortable, she sheet had a stain and there was one tiny pillow that was barely a pillow. There was mold all over the hotel
