"Good option for getting to the various art islands instead of staying on the islands. It is also across from the train station so easy to get to from Okayama. It's all about the location and convenience to transport and the hotel it nice."
"The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The deck was also large, and I had a wonderfully relaxing time drinking coffee while listening to the birds. I’d love to stay here again the next time I visit Naoshima."
"It was hard to access without a car (required a 40-minute bus ride from Kurashiki Station and a 15-minute walk from the nearest bus stop). The public bath house was nice, but some calming music would make it a little more relaxing when it's quiet. Otherwise, the door opening was very jarring."
"I really enjoyed this hotel. It is older and has tatami rooms - they were a great price and had the most amazing view. i strongly recommend using this hotel and hope you can enjoy looking at the beautiful scenery."
"it's the best option if you want to feel the real old Japanese style of living, the food are just excellent and great service, the hotel keeper can't speak much English but he understand what we want"

"Front desk stuff doesn't speak fluent English but they are very friendly and able to use translation apps to assist cusmoters. The hotel is located near a very busy street full of restaurants and bars but it's quiet inside."
"Small cigarette at lobby
And The rooms are old, but meals are included, so it's probably a good value for money considering the convenience. However, the smell of cigarettes seems to have permeated the building, so I don't think I'd want to stay there again."
"Premium Superior Twin Room (non-smoking)
Excellent room with lots of space, except for a tiny toilet.
Fast internet.
Pricey drinks.
Conveniently next to the railway station.
Tram stop not far away that goes to the castle and gardens."
"Convenient and a good price. Room was comfortable for 3 adults. Only issue was heater didn’t work very well. We were offered new rooms to move to but chose to stay. Thanks for your hospitality. "
"コスパが最高です!駅近くで長期間泊まりましたが、過ごしやすかったです。I had wanted to stay near the station area for various reasons, and this happened to be one of the cheapest options for me that seemed to have the amenities and room configuration preferences I wanted. I stayed for 8 nights, so a bit of a long stay, but I had a pleasant stay.
The email the hotel sends out does say you need to be out of the room between 10am-4pm, but I was able to arrange at check-in to have my room cleaned every few nights instead, so that I could have access to my room all day on non-cleaning days. The only thing that I did not like was that there was a bit of strange rule of turning in keys to the box if you exit the hotel before 10am, which made me hesitant to do so in case I wanted to return before 10am. There may be a reason for this like safety or cleaning, but it felt a bit unnecessary especially on non-cleaning days. I did not have an issue since I just arranged my schedule to not run into any problems.
The staff was friendly and helpful, there were washers and dryers, and the location is almost unbeatable for the price. Thankfully I got a non-smoking room, and the air conditioning worked well in the hot summer. Overall recommend!"
