"Kudos to Ctrip! The hotel I originally booked was unable to accommodate me, but their customer service team offered several alternative options and gave me ample time to rebook, all without any extra cost on my part. Their genuine effort to resolve the issue was highly appreciated.
The hotel is easily visible once you exit the JR station; just follow the green-painted road. It's about a 10-minute walk, even with luggage in tow.
The room was remarkably spacious, surprisingly so for a Japanese hotel! While the decor showed its age a bit, it was very well-maintained and immaculately clean.
Shingu itself isn't a bustling town, and the streets were quite empty. However, I was surprised by how many guests were at breakfast.
The breakfast itself was average taste-wise, but the selection was plentiful, so you could definitely get a full and satisfying meal."
"Location 8/10:
A little too far from the JR station, where the buses and the taxi stations are.
Staff:
Very polite, very helpful.
Facilities:
i can't smell cigarettes residues, but i can definitely feel it on the blankets, kind of sticky. Luckily, there are fresh sheets. The blankets are a little overkill for summers anyway.
individual showers plus bath tub, toilets. Although it's a little small, but it gets the job done. You also got free TV, with movies and stuff, BTW, people with kids might need have more parental control over the remote."
"It is best to take a taxi to the hotel, because the actual distance is not a straight line distance, the world will go old, the taxi is about 730-820 Japanese currency, check-in because the downstairs is a password lock, can not enter at the beginning, are asking for the assistance of the supermarket staff next to it or just someone in and out to enter. The accommodation is also self-service, and finally someone will give you a set of passwords, but after 17:00 in the evening, the staff will get off work ⋯⋯ is my experience.
As for the living environment, it is all public toilets, bathrooms, kitchens, but it is very clean. This is very good. The washing machine and dryer equipment are great. We live in the room. 3-4 The room has a lot of space.
There is a bicycle to rent for free, which is also great
Riding to the jr station quickly, taking the bus to the Honya Daegu Shrine on Kumanoko Road, and Tangzhifeng, the timetable should be optimistic
Return to jr station must also call in advance
In short, the overall experience is good"
"We were able to spend clean and comfortable, including the bathroom. The room was quite compact and I couldn't spread my suitcase. It was nice to be able to leave my luggage before check-in. I was expecting a review that there was a mandarin orange, but I was sorry that I didn't put it 😂"
"The hotel facilities are OK, but the toothbrush is too small and can only be used once. I need to use another set of teeth brushing in the morning and evening. The location is a bit remote. The hotel is relatively environmentally friendly and will ask guests if they need to reserve a room. If you stay for 2 days, you don't need it."
"The surrounding environment is very good, the price of Golden Week is a bit expensive, usually very cheap, cost-effective, and excellent value for money. In the mountains, the hot springs are also very famous, suitable for vacation. Will go again next time."
"Facilities: The Japanese-style room we booked is super big. The only inconvenient thing is that the toilet and bathroom are outside the room. We were given a separate key, so we had to go out of the bedroom door every time. It was a little inconvenient.
The hotel has a lot of information about train schedules, which is convenient for reading.
Hygiene: Since the room is old and large, there are still some dead corners, but it can be ignored.
Environment: There is a very large supermarket around the hotel, which is convenient for buying all kinds of food and daily necessities and snacks. There are several restaurants around, but since we arrived on Tuesday, Kumano Gyu and the two restaurants recommended by everyone were closed.
Service: The service staff was very enthusiastic. Maybe because the toilet and bathroom were not in the room, they took us to the room and told us how to use them.
Breakfast: Better than nothing. We went to eat curry rice at 7 o'clock, and the curry was gone. There was only bread, egg sausage, rice, and miso soup."
