Seikatei

Clean room, price acceptable.

This was our first hotel experience in Japan and it exceeded our expectations. The breakfast options were fantastic and were a great introduction to Japanese food culture as well as including western options. The proximity to shopping and transit was great.

The Stay: The HOTEL LiVEMAX Sapporo can be found a few minutes walk from the Nakajima-Koen Station. You can take the Namboku Line directly from Sapporo Station. The room I was given was on the upper floor, but the view is not that great. The room itself seemed to be a on the older side, but it was kept well and clean. It was decent sized since it was doubled bed (but your mileage may vary depending how much luggage you have). It has most if not all the essential amenities, and it is the typical business setting for people to sleep for the night. The room seem pretty clean at first glance, but I did caught some tiny bugs crawling (could just be environment). Still a decent budget place to stay if you want your own place. The Miscellaneous: The hotel is located at a good location for traveling around. There are also convenient stores located right around the corner if you need anything. The nearby park is also a nice place for walks. The staff were sincere with no issue. Not sure what the room cleaning procedures are, but does not seem like standard hotel where they help clean daily (maybe I am missing something?). But this is still a decent hotel at a decent location if you are looking for something on a budget.
