Hotel Analysis
Based on 4 sites · 4,629 reviews
A budget 2-star hotel in Kobe's Shinkaichi area. Reviews frequently mention proximity to the subway and spacious rooms. Many note good value for the room size across booking sites.
Guests highlight 'easy access to Shinkaichi station', 'convenience stores and supermarkets within 5-minute walk'. Some praise comfortable beds and space for families or groups. Staff friendliness is noted, but English communication can be limited.
Cleanliness complaints are common. Dust, mold, cigarette smell, and bathtub drainage issues recur. Smoking rooms often have strong odors with poor cleaning. Thin walls let neighboring noise through.
Suits business travelers or short stays prioritizing price. Fine for just sleeping, but avoid if cleanliness matters.
