Another nice stay at an APA hotel. The room was tiny, the TV was huge...all is right in the world. (But seriously, it would be REALLY nice to be able to access the TV's settings to enable video game mode on an HDMI input; without it, Tears of the Kingdom was making me REALLY motion sick.) Negatives: The hotel really doesn't care when you'll be out of the room -- they want you to vacate EVERY THREE DAYS FROM 10AM TO 3PM FOR CLEANING. (Emphasis theirs.) Right, sorry...I'll leave. But seriously, capsule hotels often have lounges where people can hang out during that time. The bathroom was pretty cramped. I'm 179cm tall, putting me at "the average height for a male, world-wide." Glad I'm no taller. It was a bit awkward having to pass by the front desk to get to the vending machine. A second "actual" pillow would be a nice option. Neutral: There was a "2nd door" leading out the street, when you exited near the elevators (which I did, nearly every time); in between those two doors, you could look up and see sky. It was a bit ridiculous, every time. Positives: I hardly saw anyone but cleaning staff, which is a plus (for me). The bed was pretty darn comfortable. The electric outlet placement was "convenient enough." Mini-fridge, clothes-refreshing spray, etc. The toilet and the shower were warm and inviting. The coin laundry cost me a total of 700 yen, took 2.5hrs and got my clothes clean and nice-and-dry. Slow but steady! Keep the stays cheap and yes: I'll be back!

There are many charging port, which is very convenient. There is a public onsen to soak off the day. Provided the yukata as well. Security seems good, as only guests with access card can take the elevator. A short walk (10min) from shopping area. Parking is a distance away with a partnering carpark at 1200yen for a day (2pm to 12pm next day). There are parking nearby for shorter parking durations. All in all, very nice hotel. Will book rooms from this hotel chain in my next Japan trip.

Decent for a short 1 night stay at a budget

Quite conveniently located about 5 tram station ride away from Kumanoto JR station. Room is decent sized but the toilet is too small and lights were too dim.

Although from exterior the hotel looks new, the interior is abit old. For 1 night stay, it’s alright. Typical small room. Breakfast was ok, which include Kumamoto Ramen on order basis. Tasty and good.

A business type hotel and quite corporate. Clean with professional and helpful staff. Room reminded of being in an inside cabin of a ferry. Was ok as a base from which to watch rugby world cup.
