Nothing

Room was spacious for a family of 6. Washing machine and kitchenette very useful.

No lounge area in reception

We stayed here with our 1 year old toddler and it is the perfect accommodation! We chose a room with two large queen/king size beds that could technically sleep up to six (though I think that’d be a pretty tight squeeze), and it was perfect for our family of 3. The tatami mat living space was clutch for my 1 year old who crawls and walks around a lot, so I was deliberate in choosing places that don’t have carpeted floors. Having the beds on an elevated platform helped keep the space feel big and airy. The kitchenette was perfect so we could cook our own meals and the washer/dryer combo was so handy. Location is ideal and you can easily walk to Tenmonkan, to the ekimae, or hail taxis. The red coffee truck out front is so cute. Loved being able to get new towels on the daily and choose pajamas when needed. I HIGHLY recommended for anyone and everyone and we’ll definitely stay here again when we return to Kagoshima!

The sensor light in the room entrance area is helpful though at night, when someone needed to use the bathroom, it’d light up the dark space and easily wake others. If there was a translated simple manual for the minisplit and the washer/dryer, that’d be helpful. Lastly, every time we told a taxi driver our address, the 7-30 would not show up on their maps (just 7-29 or 7-31) but it was simple enough to tell them where the hotel was as we approached. Perhaps a sign in the driveway would be helpful for drivers.
