The cheap price has its reasons, it is equivalent to the domestic Super 8. It is quite convenient to shop and take a bus around. One step to the countryside, one step to the bustling city, one step to the mountain, and one step to the boat. If a person is tired of the hustle and bustle of the city and wants to hide occasionally, this is still a good choice. After all, it is absolutely affordable to live here in seclusion for a month or two in Japan.

I booked it for the second time, both before and after my child took the Longgu University entrance exam. The house is clean, quiet, and convenient for transportation. I just have to see if I can get into Longgu University this time.

Except that the room facilities are a little old, everything else is good and the front desk is very welcoming.

The night view was beautiful. The station was also very close and it was a convenient location. I went to Kyoto the next day, and it took about 30 minutes on the highway. I also went to the Metasequoia road.

There are many restaurants near Seta Station. Parking is by reservation only, so if you don't make a reservation, you'll have to park in a paid parking lot far away.

The front desk staff was friendly and smiley. The room smelled of cigarettes, but the smell disappeared after I sprayed the provided deodorant. When I tried to take a shower, the hot water didn't come out, so it was cold until it came out. There were many outlets and an air purifier, so it was comfortable. I thought the breakfast buffet could have been a little more varied, but it was delicious.

The hotel is too old. 🔑After opening the door, you need to use the key to open the power lock on the wall to connect the power to the room. The hotel is very convenient to cross the road from the station. The hygiene is average. Hair was found on the edge of the bathtub..

The hotel is opposite Seta Station. It only takes five minutes to walk down. There are many restaurants around, including Lotte Burger, Wangjiang Dumplings, and some specialties. The hotel is very old, the house is small, and it is relatively neat. It can be reached within two kilometers. There is a big supermarket next to the lake. It’s good to experience a small city!

The location, facilities, and comfort were great.
This time we came by car, but the parking lot was easy to use, the station was close, and it was within walking distance to go out for dinner and to the convenience store.
I'll use it again next time.

I used it two years ago and didn't have a bad impression of it, and it was close to the station so I decided to use it again.

Although I have worked here before, this is my first time staying here. Clean, quiet, very satisfactory, 3 minutes walk to the tram station, bus station, 2 minutes walk from the hotel to Wangjiang Dumplings, noodle shop, and convenience store. The hotel also has a restaurant, but it costs extra. There are two beds and a table in the hotel, but the room is too small. However, this is a feature of Japanese hotels, it would be great if the room was a little bigger.
