Pleasant stay and nice breakfast.

Awkward that check in is another floor

The place is near subway station. The staff will follow the rules and they are friendly

Room was nice and warm.

ONSEN is nice

Need arrangement for elevator operation. Usually inconvenience …. Waiting so long

Right in the heart of the Susukino area. Very close 3-5 walk to the JR station. The room is standard Japanese size. The walls can be a cleaner though. There is a public bath on the lobby floor for those who are interested.

It was a small room, but tidy and equipped with enough (or more than enough) items that makes your stay more comfortable. (e.g slippers, tooth brush, fridge, Japanese style PJ, iron board, etc.)

I chose this hotel so I would be close to the Susukino site of the Sapporo Snow Festival. Susukino is great; it's in the center of town so you're close to subway stations, restaurants, convenience stores, Round 1, Don Quijote, and the Odori site of the snow festival. However, being Sapporo's nightlife and entertainment district, on my way back to this hotel every night I was often approached by people trying to coax me into their establishments or asking me if I'm "looking for something," if you get my drift. If that doesn't bother you (and you're not traveling with kids) then this location cannot be beat. The room was fairly spacious and comfy, and the breakfast buffet rotates its items every morning so no meal is dull. In addition, they kindly replenished my towels and toiletries every day, even when I put the "Do Not Disturb" sign on my door. My only gripes would be that the Internet Center has a PC with extremely limited features and that the hotel didn't do much about the icy sidewalk in front of the building, so guests can often slip and fall on their bottoms. If the Sapporo Snow Festival is your main objective, try a hotel on or near Odori, but I would gladly stay here again outside of winter.

The goods: 1000 yen parking right next to the hotel until 1 PM the next day. Good breakfast. The OKs: 300 yen for two pieces of luggage storage. Which is uncommon for many hotel. Room is typically small in Japan, this one is the same but sufficient. There is also Japan style hot tub on the 5th floor. Males and females have separate rooms.
