ホテルは、天文館も近く、路面電車の駅も近くて便利でした。 客室の掃除は、行き届いていましたが、加湿空気清浄機のタンクもキレイにしてほしい。 宿泊した時は、雨だったので、朝食会場から桜島が見えなかったのは、残念でした。

今回は、当チェーンホテル初めての宿泊になり、しかも頑張って4泊しました。その上、朝食も付けての宿泊になりました。タオル、寝巻きの日々の交換、シーツ等の交換もアナウンス通りにちゃんと対応してもらい、アイスペールが何故か最後までそのままになってました。朝食は、セットで申込んでいたので毎日頂きましたが、同じメニューの4日は、キツかったですね。次回は、無しにします。カレーも無いのも不満の一つ。コレは、ウエイト大きいと思います。スタッフの方は、皆様対応よくして頂き満足です。
