Candeo Hotels Kumamoto Shinshigai
Lovely hotel. Great location and parking just next to hotel building. Staffs are pleasant and efficient! The only down side is the cleanliness of the spa area. On busy hours might need extra cleaning (hair on the floor in change room, guests wear slippers get in change area…etc)
