Don’t make me use the machine for check in. If the staff is at the front they should do the check in.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Just like many other reviews have mentioned that this is a very minimalist hotel. There is limited staff at this location and so if you are just staying for one night, it is probably ok. But for longer stay, you probably want to look into a more traditional full service hotel. Also, the AC in our room and just when we were about to check out, our AC unit starts dripping water and almost got our luggage wet :-(
The staff is very nice and helpful. The room is a bit small comparing to what it looks during booking. The air con takes time to cool the room. Overall is satisfactory.
Loved our stay at this property! Great spacious apartment hotel that was in a convenient location near a lot of the local attractions in Kumamoto. Limited parking, but there are plenty of parking lots nearby to use. Staff was very helpful in directing us to them and check-in was a breeze.
It's a good/very good place to stay. The building is new and modern, although already showing some signs of heavy use. The rooms are well equipped and the kitchenette is small but functional. The beds are comfortable. The location is easy walking distance to the tram (Gofukumachi or Kawaramachi Stations). Check in was smooth and there are staff at the front desk till 10pm. The minor drawbacks are absence of a desk (at least in the room I was in), and the relatively dark kitchenette. Overall, I would recommend the place.
The hotel looks quite new with modern design. The rooms are big with plenty of rooms to open your luggage, clean bathroom and toilet, and comfortable bed.
There are also multiple paid parking slots in front/ next to the hotel.
It’s in walkable distance to the Kumamoto castle.
Would stay here again if we come to Kumamoto.
