Pros: Self check-in (you need to check before check-in because emails don't arrive), 10 minutes from Otaru Station, low price, cooking possible, best bathroom and bathtub, laundry and drying possible, comfortable bed, blankets, dishes, basic necessities provided, generous Cons: The kitchen and living room are together, so the smell of food lingers, there is an air purifier, but the smell of food lingers in the living room, so the air is not good Windows cannot be opened, no water provided, better for a family group accommodation than for 1-2 people, far from Otaru Canal

Stayed here as a family of five. It would have cost over 100,000 yen to stay in a hotel, but this was a great deal. The size was perfect! Perhaps because it was the middle of winter, it felt cold even with the air conditioning on full blast. There was a new Times car park just a minute's walk away, so it wasn't a problem. The bathroom had poor drainage, so water would collect. Overall, it was a great deal, although it was a little inconvenient due to the reduced costs!
