My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were a bit too hot despite adjusting the temperature and felt a bit cramped for moving around, but the exceptional included breakfast definitely made up for it. The service provided was top-notch, with kind and genuine staff offering warm Japanese hospitality from every corner of the hotel. The location, just next to the Hakodate train station, was very convenient for transportation. The dining experience was delicious, offering a mix of Japanese and Western options, though the rooms and facilities were somewhat on the smaller side.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were small but acceptable and had enough space for our luggage. The service was meticulous and clean, though a bit lacking in warmth. The location next to Hakodate station was incredibly convenient for us as non-Japanese travelers, but it wasn't in the town center. Dining offered decent value for money but could have been more competitive. Overall, the hotel was comfortable and clean, with a few drawbacks that stood out.
