Makisako Vacations from ￥24,673

Get the room with the volcanic view, it is worth it! That and the location were unbeatable! Once arrived at the station, you can go through AMU plaza to walk underground via B1 to then take the elevator up to the reception on the 7th. Our initial impression of the hotel was negative - we arrived at 2:38 p.m. just to be told by the staff that check-in is at 3 p.m. we understand the check-in time is strictly enforced throughout Japan, a hotel, however, can distinguish itself by offering check-in when it is within 30 mins of check-in time if you see that the customers were arriving with heavy backpacks and that the room is available. The room was on the smaller side (as expected), but it somehow offered a small seating area and a round table if you have to work on your laptop. It would have been nice if there were shelves to place items along the bed wall. Outlet plugs were located on the same area, so be sure to bring one with longer cords. I did appreciate having a water refill machine on each floor as I refrain from using plastic bottles. The amenities in the bathroom were limited compared to Osaka & Hiroshima (no face moisturizer or lotion). Housekeeping is offered on the 3rd day only, but new towels and tea bags were provided daily. The location was fantastic being located right across from the Kagoshima station, in addition, it is connected directly to two underground food courts and there was a Lawson in the same building. Oh and you get 10% for dining at the food courts

Onsen was very good. The dinner was what you expect in a Ryokan (excellent). Breakfast was great but the same for all 3 days. Not many coffee shops or restaurants nearby. The room was spacious and Japanese style. Fresh yukata every day. We would come back again if we came this way.

Highly recommend, the hot spring is the best. They don’t use recycle water. Perfect view in the area. I will definitely come back again to Kagoshima area just for this hotel.

My overall experience at this hotel was good. The hotel is nice, clean, and located in a very cool area, so it’s definitely recommended. My only feedback, if anyone from management is reading, is that while I understand this is an unmanned hotel (which is why I rated staff 3/5), the fact that they weren’t able to provide us with an extra set of sheets since we were three felt a bit strict and rigid. Overall, everything was good. ---- 全体的に、このホテルでの滞在は良かったです。 ホテルは清潔で素敵ですし、とても雰囲気の良いエリアにあるので、ぜひおすすめします。 唯一のフィードバックとして、もし経営の方がご覧になっていればお伝えしたいのですが、無人ホテルであることは理解しています（そのためスタッフを3/5と評価しました）。しかし、3人で宿泊したにもかかわらず追加のシーツを用意していただけなかった点は、少し厳しく柔軟性に欠ける印象を受けました。 とはいえ、全体的にはとても満足しています。

Very clean room, all self check in , very modern
