Hotel Analysis
Based on 3 sites · 532 reviews
A 3-star Japanese-style hotel by the sea in Wakkanai. Guest reviews strongly mention the building feeling old and rundown. Many stayed here as one of limited options in Wakkanai, where hotels are generally pricey.
Mainly tatami rooms with some sea views. Staff friendliness and convenient location near station and restaurants are noted. Breakfast is tasty homemade style but needs pre-booking.
Poor cleaning, worn carpets and furniture complaints appear often. No bidet, torn screens, noise, odors, insufficient outlets, and limited front desk hours are frequent issues.
Suits short stays prioritizing sea proximity. Families or groups may find spaces cramped.
