First visit to Kumamoto

It was good. The room was spacious and the service we got from the staff pre and at check-in are flawless. It can be a bit of a challenge to get to the hotel from JR Kumamoto station with luggage as the tram is always full of people the station. But I really like the fact that it's close to the shotengai area and there are a lot of shops, restaurants and game centres around.
