Staff interaction was minimal. Check in/out was easy. Space/amenities were adequate. Location was excellent for my dining and excursion needs. Unfortunately, it appears my room had bedbugs, which is going to make the next few days uncomfortable, assuming I didn't carry away hitchhikers.

部屋の設備等は少し古く取替えた方が良いのもありましたが、宿泊費は安く、1階にコンビニ、周辺には飲食店も多く便利な場所です。 仙台では他のホテルが値上げしてる中、ここは国分町にありながら、リーズナブルです。 喫煙の部屋もあります。 仙台駅からタクシーで千円かかりません。
