Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although spacious and clean, showed signs of wear and tear. On the positive side, the 'harbour view' room provided all the basic facilities I needed. The service was friendly and attentive, although there were some language barriers. The location was a bit isolated, but the proximity to the beach was a plus. The dining options offered a variety of choices, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel offers rooms that are more spacious than traditional compact Japanese hotels, making them suitable for up to four guests. While not ideal for spending extended periods indoors, they are well-appointed and comfortable, especially in the ocean-view rooms. However, the location is quite far from central Naha and situated in an industrial area, which may not appeal to everyone.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, although they showed some signs of wear. The staff was extremely friendly and efficient. The location was a bit isolated, especially for longer stays, but the service made up for it. The dining options were decent, but not exceptional.
