Racist and Rude Manager

Do not book this hotel if you have any standards for yourself. This hotel is very dated and it smells terrible. They have a room for smoking. Yet the entire hall way smells like mold and cigarette smoke. Every night we rushed through the halls to get to our rooms. Thank goodness we brought fragrance spray to help our room with the atrocious odors. As for management, the manager is extremely racist and rude. Aside from his egregious racist attitude, he refused to give us extra pillows because I have neck pain issues. They weren’t any help with Yamato Transportation. Every hotel we have stayed at in Japan (Fukuoka, Kyoto, and Tokyo) have assisted us with Yamato Luggage. This hotel was the exception. We had great experiences at every hotel in our trip around Japan but this hotel! I would give it a complete F!

ハード面：まず場所がとても良いと感じました。施設はトレンドのホテルと比較すると古さが否めませんがそれ以上にスタッフ皆さんのおもてなしがとても好感が持てハード面のマイナスをカバーをされていると感じました。 私は夜のバーと朝食の和食屋さんに伺う機会がありました。ふたつのお店共に非常に行き届いた接客サービスで良い時間を過ごさせて頂きました。強いていえば・・・それらのサービスが見える化されたらもっと宿泊したくなるホテルになるのでしょうね。ありがとうございます。

房間整體不錯，應是新裝修過。惟獨浴室比較舊，而且水龍頭是冷熱水分別的，每次用水都要再重新調較水温，關水時要用力，不然會滴水。 另外，指示停車場位置的員工十分落力、辛苦和敬業，看見他要跑得比車輛更快去引路，這點希望 貴酒店能夠改善。（本人沒有用酒店停車場，只是每次出入看見）
