Machinaka Onsen Aomori Center Hotel

Stayed in a twin Room. The Room had chairs and a small round table, so we could also eat food we bought at the supermarket. Unlimited access to the attached day-use Onsen Facility, with manga and massages available, made it easy to relax. Breakfast was excellent too—you can enjoy Aomori specialties from the morning, such as small dishes that seemed to include bluefin tuna (some with medium fatty tuna) and shellfish miso. Everything was delicious. The staff promptly refilled the small dishes and were energetic and pleasant, which made for a great experience. I’ve stayed at many budget places before, but this was among the best in terms of satisfaction. I’ll be back.

I stayed here for my first sightseeing trip to Aomori in a while. The front desk staff were polite and pleasant, and there was a self-serve drink machine available; I enjoyed the coffee and cocoa as well. I also had dinner at a restaurant inside the Facility. The food was delicious, and I was able to relax at my leisure.
