The location was less than a 5 minute drive from the airport and the base. There was a grocery store and two 7-Elevens within walking distance. Only thing that would be beneficial is a change machine for the laundry, since it is ¥100 coin-only.

Very quiet. Units are on the small size but it is everything you need. Best for 1-2 people with minimal luggage. Every unit/ room had a small set of stairs.

I have never stayed in a hotel like this (each room is a separate shipping container that has been converted to a hotel suite). I found the room to be quiet and very comfortable. I chose it for its convenience to the Air Station, which you can walk to in about 5 minutes. Laundry is onsite and easy to use. Free coffee/espresso. Good WiFi. Meal vouchers are provided (one per day). I would definitely stay here again, and I recommend it to those traveling to the Iwakuni area.

This is a shipping container hotel. Very unique and I've enjoyed my stay immensely! It's very quiet here, you never hear your neighbors and the city is quiet as well. It's next to the airport and MCAS Iwakuni. This is my second stay at this property and I've already booked a third stay. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and have nice amenities.
