    The room was noisy at times, not from the outside noise but the hallway echoed at night whenever anyone closed a door or got something from the vending machine.

    Located at the train station which was very convenient.

    Only thing was - the motion door which opened to the Reception/restaurant when I left the room in my Pjs to do washing at the end of the corridor. :)

    The position was very central and made it very easy for us and our friends to visit the temple walk , then go on the ferry and walk about Onomichi.

    A bit surprised and disappointed that I had missed the time deadline when I only checked in at 7 pm to order breakfast for the following morning. I can understand the chef might not be able to get ingredients for a full breakfast by that time. But surely, an hotel of this standard should be able to provide a lighter alternative to their customers for orders after 7 pm.

    Good location. Very helpful staff. Comfortable room, surprisingly quiet considering it is located above a train station

    Well the room we had did not look like the one we booked. The windows were too high and it was not possible to see outside without taking the stairs leading to a very small part of the room which was not very comfortable. The sink in front of the bed (which is very low) and outside the bathroom was not practical. Since the photos of the hotel shows the spa zone, it could be written in a more obvious way that there are extra costs for the use of it (quite expensive). With a room not so comfortable, a free acces for guests to the bath would be appreciated. Last but not least we arrived by car and had extra costs for the parking.

    The hotel is in the heart of the city and gives direct access to the train and to the Shimanami Kaïdo. The hotel is nice. The breakfast is really a good part of the experience.

    Bring earplugs, the hotel is at the train station and you can hear the trains.

    Excellent location and facilities. Very book breakfast (needs to be prebooked a few days ahead). I really liked having a projector in the room. Private onsen baths are very good too.

    The restaurant was closed for dinner and was not updated on the Bookings.com website. A bit disappointed but staff managed a refund within a day or two.

    The location was perfect for travellers. The breakfast was good. The best feature were the corner windows of our room. Watching the comings and goings of the trains was a treat for train buffs!

    The room layout was nice and comfortable, the tatami loft was good to relax in. Location right on the station, central to many attractions. Breakfast was tasty and the staff were helpful.

    Would have liked some choice with the breakfast to accommodate dietary restrictions. We could hear the trains at night, which kept waking up my partner. Also couldn't easily open suitcases due to the room layout.

    Really clean and modern hotel with a very central location - ideal for starting the Shimanami Kaido. Also it had all the amenities you could need, incl. washing facilities which were very useful.

    There was no breakfast buffé, instead the breakfast was served individually on a tray. The quality was good but I would have preferred a buffé because I would have picked different food items for breakfast.

    Fantastic room and location. Very friendly staff. Clean and fresh facilities.

    - the room is really cramped that there’s almost or no room for your luggage - hard to communicate in English with the staff - not affiliated with the Shimanami Kaido same day delivery service

    - proximity to the train station - dystopian feel of the place - washing machine and dryer in one
