This hotel offers great value for money with a clean atmosphere and helpful staff. It's conveniently located near the city center, which is a definite plus. However, the smoking policy is a drawback, as the air can be less than pleasant, especially on the upper floors. Overall, it’s a solid choice if you don’t mind the smoke issue and are looking for budget-friendly accommodations.

I found this hotel to be quite affordable, especially at just 3500Y per night for a single room with breakfast included. The clean rooms were equipped with a fridge and kettle, which was a pleasant surprise for the price. However, the persistent smell of smoke in the non-smoking areas was bothersome, especially as a non-smoker. It's a solid choice if you can manage the smoky environment.

I found the hotel to be a great budget option in Aomori. The rooms are clean and well-equipped, making it good value for the low price I paid.

The staff were really nice and spoke English well, which made my stay more enjoyable.
