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。

スタッフの皆さんが親切でした。禁煙希望から喫煙室になってしまったのですが、空気清浄機や清浄スプレーを用意してくれました。匂いはどうしても取れなかったですが、対応が良かったので、まずまず良かったです。部屋は古いなりに清潔感ありでよかったです。朝食も美味しく、ボリュームもありました。働きに来てる方が利用してるようで、近い部屋から大きな声や音も聞こえずよかったです。枕が高いのがわたしには合わなくて残念。2種類くらいあるといいかな。あと、美顔器の貸し出しはとても良かったです。感染対策も出来ていました。とにかく落ち着いて過ごせるホテルでした。駐車場も敷地内無料はいいですね。機会があればまた利用したいです。
