The hotel is convenient, located near to Karashimacho tram station and Sukura Machi Kumamoto. It takes about 20-25min walk to Kumamoto Castle. The room is nice, clean and tidy. I enjoyed my stay in Th is hotel.

Room is good and considered spacious The bed design to store luggage underneath which makes the room with more space, really good suggestion Nice having free welcome drink, but just too full to enjoy late evening Overall good and definitely can stay again next time

Great location, walking distance to the tram and lots of restaurants and izakayas. Very clean and comfortable. Small room but very thoughtfully designed, and had everything I needed. Didn't try the public bath, but my friends loved it.
