Hachihama Vacations from $222

The entire hotel feels worn and in need of an update. The area along the canal is nice enough and I felt safe at night, just wish I had chosen a better hotel.

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.

Only stayed 1 night and wouldn’t care to stay longer. Room is small and had an odour. Very basic hotel stay not worth the price; stayed in much nicer hotels in Japan for far less money. Upside is it’s located a few minutes walk to train station and 10 minute walk to Kurashiki Old Quarter.

Big beds and enough space to get rest

Staff is very cordial and professional. Breakfast is adequate.
