The hotel's reception area is situated on the fourth floor, and parking is available in a separate building, which may be inconvenient for guests with a significant amount of luggage. Despite this, the hotel is exceptionally clean and well-maintained, offering amenities such as a coin-operated laundry, ice machine, and complimentary coffee.

Etablissement se situe à deux pas de la station de train. Ça prend 30 minutes au max pour aller à Kyoto. Dejeuner est très bon, choix de patesseries est large et elle est très bonne. Les chambres sont petites, c’est difficile de ranger deux valises standarts.

Everything was fine for vessel inn its a chain hotel where we stayed while we were in Hokkaido. The service in Hokkaido was good. But the service of this particular Vessel Inn in Moriyama Ekimae is not so good as I've booked the room with 2 adults and 1 child of 12 years old for 2 nights. The first night there were lacked of slipper, tooth brush, pillows, towels for my child. When the maids clean our room the next day, not only they took out the pillow and again they left only 2 sets of each amenities. where my husband had to get it from the front desk and the worker still ask him to pay for towels of 100 yen it was absurd.
