Analysis

Key Strengths

Rooftop Open-Air Bath Operation

Located on the 13th floor and operating until 1:30 AM, it's practical for unwinding after a day's work

High guest satisfaction due to a menu featuring local specialties and the effective use of local ingredients

Smooth Communication and Service

Points to Note

Uncertainty of Room View

Due to the surrounding terrain, some rooms offer a direct view of a cemetery, which may cause psychological discomfort during the stay

Compact Room Layout

Typical of Japanese business hotels, the bed is close to the wall, and there is insufficient space to open large suitcases

Inconvenience of Public Bath Usage

Guests must bring towels from their rooms, and since no dedicated slippers are provided for moving around, personal shoes must be worn
