Although I only stayed one evening just a side note for those who enjoy their rooms to be cool during the winter season they don't run AC mode just heating. They accommodated us by bringing in a cooling fan. It did help somewhat it did bring the temp down but that was an accumulation of things we turned off the HVAC system and left the curtains open to allow the coldness from the windows in and positioned the fan to catch the cool air to blow into the room. Overall it was comfortable. We did request a NON-SMOKING room I believe we got one of the higher-end rooms which meant SMOKING rooms were nearby so we did get some of the airflow from the hallway into the room. It was manageable but for those who are sensitive to smoke, I don't recommend rooms on the 9th level. Overall the hotel staff did their best into accommodating our needs. They did allow us to hold our bags before and after checking in and out to give us some extra time to tour Otaru. Location is very convenient there are accesses in the front and rear of building so during the cold season it really helps a lot. Also, if you need a quick coffee and snack fix there is a nice little cafe in the lobby area.
