Nice and clean hotel in Sannomiya

I had to take a 4:40 am shuttle to Kansai Airport. since the trains were not running i had to book a hotel by the bus station. Apa has always been my pick nice clean and affordable hotels in Japan. This one was right by the Ikuta Jinja. it was quite busy because it was New Year’s day so everyone was going to the Temple to pray for good fortune and health for 2025. it was still very quite and i got nice time lapse of people visiting the temple from one of the windows. Location is great because you are surrounded by restaurants, shops, pubs/bars of Sannomiya.

生田神社の直ぐ隣で市営地下鉄三宮駅に近く、新幹線利用に便利。 部屋は狭く、窓から殆ど景色も見えず、閉塞感あり。 ホテル内にはエレベーターが一台しかないため、清掃員と利用が重なると、昇降待ち時間が長く、1階のフロントに降りるだけでも相当の時間がかかることあり。 TV受像機の上部は、清掃されていないらしく、綿埃が溜まっていた。 フロントの係員の応対は丁寧で、不満は無し。 但し、チェックアウト遅延には、1時間1000¥の追加料金を要求している割には、清掃が正規チェックインの15時ギリギリまでかかっているらしく、少し早めに到着しても、入室させてもらえず。 和洋ヴァイキングの朝食は、質量とも貧弱。
