It wasn’t for me!!!

It was self check in system but very confused!!!! The touch screen wasn’t easy to use and open the room key box was difficult to open. It took long time to check in. The room was very clean but if I have to do this check in process again I will pick other hotels!

Everything about this hotel was cute and the location is amazing. Downside was the check in process. I thought their google drive instructions were clear but when actually confirming all your guests on the screen, it doesn’t let us confirm but just go automatically to calling. I almost thought I did something wrong, but I guess it just prompts the next screen and they want you to verbally confirm you got the key. The calling part threw my friends off who were also checking in and caused some delays. Other than that, great location to everything in Kamakura.

掃除がされていなかった?

便利な立地とお洒落な内装で選んだホテルでした。 ベッドで掛け布団を開いたところ、使ったバンドエイドが入っていてゾっとしました。 なんとか気を取り直して、シャワーを浴び、暑かったので、冷房を付けたところ、今度はくしゃみが5分ほど止まらなくなってしまいました。普通はこんなことは起きないのですが・・・。 よく見渡すと部屋が汚くて、お掃除や布団交換をきちんとされていないのだと感じ、残念な滞在になりました。
