We were pleasantly surprised with the meal. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Everything was within walking distance. Snacks in the lobby were nice and the hotel had a cute otter theme. Highly recommended.

Loved this place!
Very clean, reasonable price, and with friendly staff. The hotel's sea otter theme is very cute and adds extra charm to the place. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip to Okayama!

Fantastic service but room smelled of cigarettes
The hotel was a little difficult to find at first but once you know the way it was easy. The staff were extremely friendly and very courteous. We had a early start and informed them that we would’ve heading out before breakfast started. They set aside some snacks for us to take the next morning which was a lovely touch. They even organized for a package to be delivered to my next hotel when the Post Office was closed. We were so impressed by the amount of hospitality from the hotel. The room itself was spacious for the two of us but the only downside was that the room smelled of cigarette smoke. As a non smoker it was hard to sleep and the deodorizer in the room was utilized all night long. We had a restless nights sleep. If the rooms were not smoky it would have been a very good nights sleep.

Directions (provided by hotel) from train station to hotel were not clear, if not helpful. “Breakfast included “ was exaggerated - only coffee/other drinks and a few pre-packaged breads were offered. Adult-films TV channels were readily available when this hotel presented itself as a family friendly one.

Reception staff, location & price great. Room a bit drab & really disliked the very open hard copy advertising (graphic images lying on the table) and access to (just flicking the channel up / down brings you to them) porn tv channels. Really not acceptable.

It was a small,comfortable hotel. Close to shops, trains and restaurants. Nothing flash, a bit dated but clean and staff were helpful and courteous. The free breakfast was a variety of bread and tea,coffee and cocoa. Thought it strange that even though we requested our room didn’t need to be made up we were left with a bag of clean towels, yukata, etc.hanging on the outside of the door.

Friendly Stay!
Convenient, comfortable and clean nice place with interesting breads every morning. Front desk service very good, it was raining upon check out and we asked for big trash bag to cover our luggage, the helpful staff gave us 2 big clear plastic bags and cut a slot to cover our luggage with tapes to secure.

Great hotel, great value.
The staff couldn't be friendlier or more helpful. There's always someone at the front desk who speaks English well enough to handle anything. The amenities available in the lobby are wonderful. The location isn't right next to the station, but it's only a 10 minute walk. The bed is larger than what I've found in most single rooms in business hotels, and the room is slightly more spacious. The "washlet" bathroom is a bit dated, but very comfortable and functional.

Less than I expected
Sounded like the staff were talking about customers and cracking jokes as they left. The soft drinks were a nice touch, but there was no indication of how often they clean the machine. Also the free breakfast is one choice out of a box of convenience store bread. Bed was ok, and bath was big enough to sit in, but I wouldn’t stay there again myself.

Japan summer holiday 2018
This hotel is a short walk from the JR Okayama train station. Quite a few shops, restaurants are located nearby. The hotel staff were quite friendly and made sure that we were comfortable. The breakfast provided was a good touch. Even though they served the same items everyday, it was still good and adequate. Overall, I would recommend this place for families as well as for business trips.
