The hotel provides pick up at the station. Just make a call and they will reach the station in 3 minutes. Everything is very good. They even offer to fetch us to nearby supermarket. The dinner and breakfast portion are a lot and delicious.

宿泊客が到着前に部屋のチェックを徹底して欲しい。。。。。

妻の両親との旅行で2部屋を予約しましたが、両親の部屋はエアコンが煩過ぎてテレビの聞こえず、部屋を替えてもらったのですが、その部屋もリモコンの電池が切れたのかリモコンが使えず、テレビも消すにも本体でスイッチを切ってチェックアウト。散々な宿泊でした。
