Good sized room for 3 people, though we didn't realise one bed would be smaller than the others. It was not a problem though. Bathroom needed a little extra cleaning and the shower curtain probably needed replacing if you looked close enough. Reception kindly let us leave our bags after checkout so we could get lunch before leaving Kusatsu.

快適に滞在できました

駅から少し離れていますが、静かな環境です。 部屋は広く快適でした。Wifi環境も良好でした。 朝食はバイキングでなくセットメニューですが必要十分な量でした。 駅近隣のチェーンホテルより高額ですが、部屋の広さを考えれば納得できます。
