Good value, good room”

Hotel was great, warm (especially winter), safe & comfortable. Free wifi throughout the building. The room was kinda on the small side for a single and you would be done if you was over 5ft10-6ft as the doors and roof were very low both in the hotel and the room. Other than this it provided me with a safe, dry, secure place to access the Aomori & surrounding areas, coin washing facilities were on site also but i didn't use them but im unsure if washing powder would be available from reception for a fee. Microwaves & trouser presses were freely available on every floor near the lifts and ironing boards & irons on request. Other amenities such as towels, hair brushes & dryers, toothbrushes & paste were available. Only drawback was its located quite a distance from the train station e.g. 1.1Km or just over half a mile from the train station so if you have big luggage to carry it may be advisable to either taxi to the hotel or bus it if you can find out bus times and which buses go near by

Hotel was faaaar from Aomori station. It's a doable walk but probably not an enjoyable one if you have a big luggage with you. Not to mention my room was so small I could barely open my carry-on sized luggage. I should have just paid a little more to stay in APA or something considering they tend to keep the same level of quality across Japan.

This hotel is quite old and has smelly odors (like smoking) from the reception. The promoted pictures in Agoda.com do not seem the true environments of the hotel. The location of this hotel is quit far from the Aomori station. It is not convenient for anyone who walks from the station with big luggage. The front guy expresses unsatisfied feelings toward me when I do not know some Japanese word. All in all, I have no good feeling at this hotel. Once is enough.

It's nice staying here”

near combinis, helpful staffs, enough facilities

First, it's not a piece of cake walk from Aomori station.(the station itself is cute, its little details) Taking bus might be useful, you might want to learn more about Aomori bus, there is bus stop near the hotel and it's a very convenient mode of transportation here. Along Shin-machi Dori(Road) is many cute little shops for killing bores.(not to the point of being shopping district) One of this is Beny Mart, local supermarket, which I discover this Maccha Crunch brand that tastes so divine and can't be found anywhere else, I mean it. I can't think of anything that I wanted and the room facilities did not include. They even have smell-eliminitaing spray provided for you. Staffs are afraid of English but they do try, you can ask them for bus map. Overall, very very nice room for this price tag, friendly staff, around the hotel isn't boring.

A big smile like the hotel name welcoming us during check-in. Not many people stay in this hotel which is about 15-20 min walk from the JR station but it seems to be quiet and good to us. Room is small but very clean which is satisfied for couple stay. Location near to the shopping mall and food store. Recommended for the traveller who is looking for a night rest only.

A good 15 minutes walk from the JR Station (I move around as much as I can on foot). The main shopping street is just 5 minutes away (leads to-and-fro the station) with a good variety of shops and eateries. The room was really nice though, e right size for a business hotel. The staff are friendly too; I checked in 3 hours late, and they had the courtesy to asked if I had difficulty finding this place. Would definitely love to spend nights here again.
