Niimi Vacations from ￥39,507

It would be good to highlight that this is a love hotel. Staff were not at the desk and signage was not clear about where the front desk was. The room was large and clean, but because this grandmother didn’t know the kind of hotel, she was surprised by adult vending machines in the room, a massage chair, and intimate objects. The bathroom was large and clean and Cinderella themed. A good surprise was the curling irons in the bathroom area. Location was an industrial area next to a train track.

The room had a strong smell of body odor that persisted despite multiple rounds of spraying air freshener. Otherwise the room was spacious and family friendly.

Spacious and convenient

Such a great hotel! Right across from train station, express bus stop, and port for ferry to Naoshima. Our room (two twins) was gorgeous, very comfortable, nice shower, separate tpiletrppm, sink in main part of room. TV allowed access to Netflix, Hulu, etc. Our reservation included access to the neighboring onsen, which had both indoor and outdoor pools. Our reservation also onuded breakfast, which was DELICIOUS. A flight of freshly made juices (orange, lemonade, tomato & red pepper, spinach and apple, blueberry and red cabbage - sounds weird but was great), appetizer of steamed veggies and carrot soup, eggs Benedict made with tasty fish, croissant and roll, coffee. So good. FYI the first floor is a hostel (shared dorms and bathrooms), but that didn't affect our stay (we were on the third floor). Hotel has a denim theme thanks to Betty Smith factory nearby. When we come back, we will stay at this hotel and take ferry back and forth to Naoshima rather than staying on Naoshima itself (we had a great hotel, but it didn't give us access to an onsen!).

Place was clean and appreciated having 3 beds instead of one bed and one futon. Was near the station and easily walkable to local eateries. Check in was smooth and would recommend for others to stay here.
