I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with its great location, just a few minutes' walk from Kagoshima Chuo Station and the bus terminal. The rooms were compact, typical for a Japanese business hotel, and very clean, although my bathroom had a bit of a smell, which was a downside. The staff were incredibly friendly and willing to help, even with their limited English. The value for the price is decent, but it could be a bit better considering the room size.

I had a decent stay at the hotel, thanks to its fantastic location that's within walking distance to public transport and a variety of dining options. The staff was friendly and eager to help, which I really appreciated. However, the rooms were smaller and a bit too warm for my liking, lacking a fresh air option. Overall, it offers good value for money, but there’s definitely room for improvement in the comfort of the rooms.
