The stay was really great. Within walking distance to lots of good restaurants. The staff were all very friendly & helpful, especially with organizing a parking space. Really loved the provided instant ramen as a quick snack through the day. The western bed was comfortable, if not a little bit firm with a thin mattress covering (I could feel the springs under me). Great for a solo traveler!

The bathroom in the single room was quite small. I would usually leave the door open to not feel too closed in. The shower curtain also did not completely close so I had to find a way to make sure water didn’t spray over the sink.

Good location just across the river from the city center. Within 5-10 minutes walking you are in the shopping street. - The room itself is relatively spacious.It comes with an arm chair, a fridge and a hair dryer but no kettle. You can ask for a kettle at the front desk. - There are a couple of restaurants in the immediate area, most are in the city center though. - The staff was very friendly and helpful. - Private parking is offered at a fee. - The value you get is excellent.

The bathroom is extremely small and also oldfashioned.

This was the second time I stayed on the same trip. The room was comfortable and spacious for 1 and had all I needed. I continued to enjoy a nice cup of matcha tea at the end of the day in the common space. Parking is easy and convenient, staff are sweet and friendly

In my second stay the bathroom and toilet facilities were more compact and squishy, which made it a bit more clumsy to use, not a big negative.

Very good hotel, you immediately feel like you are in a high-quality accommodation. The lobby is new and huge, the rooms are big, and the AC is controllable. The staff were great, had amazing English and helped us with the parking space as well as recommendations for traveling to Aso (they even called the place for us to get more information regarding the specific day). Location is central - and within walking distance to the shopping arcades, castle, or Luffy.

None.

Comfy bed and interior design at both room and common area. Though not bad, the room is large enough to place suitcase. Close to shimotori shintengai, which have a lot of shops and restaurants.

Around 15-20 minutes tram from Kumamoto Station, and its a bit awkward to use the tram with large suitcase. The bathroom is a bit small with not much space to place your own sanitary items. No television at room.

- Very close to the downtown commercial district of Kumamoto - just go across a bridge and you're there. - Very close to the castle and the Suzenji gardens are also not too far off. - The lobby is beautiful and great to lounge around in. You can work on your computer over a rainy afternoon for e.g. - They provided coffee, mini-ramen, tea etc. is great. - They space and decor of the rooms are great. Beds are comfortable. Very clean as a whole. Mini-balcony outside as well.

- My only complain is that of the shower. The curtains are such that they wouldn't really close fully. And the shower head is of the sort that keeps moving and settling in every direction except facing you when you're trying to shower. If they could fix that, this place would be perfect.

Loved the artistic, laid back vibe and modern decor of this hotel. The granola and noodles provided in the common area along with tea, coffee and filtered water was a bonus. The extra info in the room about good places nearby to have breakfast was a nice touch. Good quiet location just a walk or short tram ride away from the main shopping/eating/castle area of the city (which is some distance from the train station).

It seemed that the whole building had been renovated except the small "unit bathroom" (common in Japan) in the room. Whilst on the small side, even by unit bathroom standards, the bathroom was perfectly functional but the sink basin didn't seem as clean as it could have been. A small bin in the bathroom would have added comfort, too. However, this is a small niggle in a super cool hotel! Loved our stay here overall.

Short walk to the tram, even closer to a few bus stops. Room was a good size for a short stay, quiet and comfortable. The self service options for hot drinks and ramen were great. I appreciate that you can opt out of daily room cleaning/linen change as a more eco friendly option.

Bathroom was very small, your usual small older unit bathroom (typical for older apartments etc), but the toilet has a washlet and toiletries are available. Noise does carry into the room from the hallway, but other guests were quiet.

Overall lovely experience. Everything was perfectly clean and the facilities and services well thought-out, including a laundry machine and free snacks etc. The staff was very professional too. Good location with access to the tram line and shopping nearby.

Although serviceable, the bathroom was pretty tiny. Otherwise we had no complaints!

The room was very clean. The hotel seemed to also be very environmentally focused which is important. The location was somewhat central. We found the staff to be exceptionally friendly and professional.

There is no elevator from the outside to the lobby which may be an issue for those with mobility issues. The bathroom is functional however a large trip risk or accident possibility exists because of the large step up/down from the room to the bathroom and vice versa. No TV.
