Fantastic 5.0
1. I stayed for two nights from April 25-27. Due to the view, I changed rooms on the second night, and the staff's arrangements were excellent, which made me very happy! 2. The hotel's location is superb, right above the Wakayama City tram station, so you arrive as soon as you get off the tram, which is exciting! 3. The hotel's design and scenery are beautiful, making it feel like great value for money. 4. The open-air hot spring is a unique feature! 5. The breakfast quality was good, and combined with the beautiful restaurant view, it was very satisfying!

The hotel's location is very convenient, close to Wakayama JR Station and connected to Kintetsu Department Store. The bus terminal downstairs makes it easy to take a bus to Kuroshio Market or other attractions. Mr. Cao, the front desk receptionist, was very friendly. We paid extra for breakfast, and the only thing to mention is that the breakfast was just average, not particularly delicious.

The hotel's location is convenient, just a 5-minute walk from the station. Although the hotel seems a bit old, everything else is great. The public bath, though small, is very unique, and they offer free popsicles and Yakult. There's also complimentary late-night ramen at 9:30 PM. I would choose this hotel again on my next visit to Wakayama.

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. our room had a beautiful view of the castle and it was very clean and quiet, with a comfortable bed. It was on bus routes and only 20-25 min walk from the train station.

A few mins walk away from the Wakayama JR station. The room is clean and spacious, and has all the necessities which is convenient for guest's stay. The breakfast buffet is delicious as well.

Great 4.0
The view of Wakayama Bay from the window is absolutely stunning! Plus, the hotel has many seats placed for enjoying the scenery, which is very convenient and relaxing. The restaurant food is also delicious. There's only one shuttle bus from the station per day, but if the timing doesn't work out, you can also take a 40-minute public bus to get there.
