Hotel Route-Inn Tsuruga Ekimae

This is the reliable Route Inn. It’s right in front of the station, yet parking and breakfast were both free. We went to Tsuruga for a day at the beach, so we checked in late and checked out early—just needed a place to sleep—and this Hotel was a great value thanks to its cleanliness and large public bath. The bath was clean and the water temperature was comfortable, but the women’s area could use more washing stations. We also enjoyed the plum juice in the lobby. Overall, it offered excellent value for money.

The staff were very kind. I really appreciated that they brought the luggage I left before check-in to my Room, and that they also stored my luggage until the evening after check-out. I would like to stay here again.
