The Room and the large public bath were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was also very delicious. I love croissants.

I stayed here the night before a golf outing. As always, the Room was clean and the bath was spacious and nice, but there was a strong body odor in the bathroom that really bothered me. Other than that, it was very comfortable.

If the in-Room TV could stream YouTube and Netflix, I think it would be even more comfortable to relax and unwind, as the Room layout was great. I would love to have YouTube and Netflix available!

The pottery-style bath in the garden storage was very comfortable. Since I was with my elderly parents, the steep traditional stairs to the second floor felt a bit challenging. I would recommend this accommodation for those looking for a relaxing and quiet stay. It would have been better if the toilet had been renovated a bit more. Overall, I am satisfied.

I stayed here to watch the Japan Cup, a road race held annually at the forest park about a 7-8 minute walk from the hotel. The hotel seems primarily for guests of the adjacent golf course, and although I expected it to be crowded the day before, it was relatively empty. The facility is old and not particularly clean, but it has a nostalgic charm with its retro Showa-era atmosphere. The room was Japanese-style with futons that you lay out yourself. The large public bath is located in the basement and was comfortable as it wasn’t crowded. However, there’s no elevator, so it might be challenging for elderly guests or those with mobility issues. Check-in is until 8 PM, so I bought dinner near Utsunomiya Station before heading over. While I wanted to enjoy some local delicacies in Utsunomiya, proximity to the event took priority for me and wasn’t an issue. After check-out, I could use the parking lot for an additional fee during my time at Japan Cup viewing—this allowed me to leave smoothly without encountering traffic restrictions on my way home by car afterward. I would consider staying here again when attending future events!

What made me decide to stay this time was that the Room had both a microwave and a washing machine! Some Hotels have laundry Facilities in the building, and some have a microwave in the lobby or in the Room, but it was eye-opening to find a Hotel where I could use both privately inside my own Room for the first time. It was truly convenient not having to deal with shared machines being in use and not knowing when they’d be available. The washer also had a tub air-dry function, which helped shorten drying time and was a big help. I also wanted to eat gyoza for breakfast in my Room! In Utsunomiya, I ate dinner at an eat-in place, then took gyoza to go and reheated them the next morning—it was delicious. This is something I couldn’t have done without an in-room microwave (I didn’t want to carry it down to the lobby), so my little wish came true. I’ve used unmanned check-in before, but this was my first time at a Hotel with no staff on site at all, which really surprised me. However, I had read Reviews beforehand about it being “unmanned” and requiring face photo capture, so check-in went more smoothly than I expected. If I hadn’t known anything in advance, though, I might have panicked. Many Hotels seem to have cramped unit-bath tubs, but this one was spacious and didn’t feel tight at all—really nice. I usually have trouble falling asleep, but maybe because of the bed and overall space here, I slept soundly from 10 pm to 6 am and surprised myself. The only thing I really want to mention: although the Rooms are non-smoking indoors, there was a huge ashtray stand placed right in front of my door. Even just opening the door briefly while moving luggage let cigarette smell drift into the Room, which was truly disappointing. Why is it placed there? It seemed randomly placed and unfortunately ended up right outside my Room—and since I hate cigarette smoke, that part made me sad. Even smoke from someone smoking far away outside another Room drifted into mine sometimes; having it right in front of my door was nothing but unpleasant. I’d appreciate it if you could consolidate smoking into one designated area or create an enclosed smoking room like a small booth. Overall it was very good. I’d like to stay again.

This is a newly opened Hotel, and I’ll stay the night before whenever I go golfing in the future. The toilet and bath were also clean—nothing to complain about. The way to open and close the door was a bit unusual this time, but it wasn’t an issue.
