I've stayed in other Toyoko Inns and I think they have maintained really good standard across the chain. This one in Aomori is no disappointment. It is easy to find and within 5-minute walk from the station, which is not a problem at all even on a snowy day. The check-in was smooth and I was able to leave my luggage in a room at the lobby before the check-in time (4PM for non-members, one hour earlier for members). The sign of free breakfast was shown at the check-in counter so I had no problem at all getting informed. |The room, as with other Toyoko Inn rooms, is spotless and well-equipped with necessities. The bed is comfortable. The window was a bit squeaky due to the snowstorm but at other times, it's fine. |The free all-you-can-eat breakfast is standard. Choices are limited but I felt ready for a long day of activities after stuffing myself full with rice, miso soup, egg rolls, potato salad, apple vinegar and coffee. |Everytime I went out and in, the staff at the front desk always greeted me with welcome. They were also able to communicate in simple English, which is enough to answer my inquiries.|Overall, I enjoyed my stay. It's no 5-star hotel of course, but the price is very affordable, the quality of service is good, and I felt very comfortable staying for 2 nights. Will choose Toyoko Inn when I visit Japan again...
Read moreThe Stay Toyoko Inn Aomori Ekimae is located close by Aomori Station (you can see it from outside the station). It is a very close walk from the station. Compared to most of the other similar hotel I stayed at in this price range, I prefer this one the most. Most likely due to the better lighting. Most rooms in the hotel (especially ones in upper floor) have nice natural lighting. This provide a more enjoyable experience. The particular room they provide me also had a nice view of the bridge, which is a plus. The room itself is nice and clean. It came with most of the essential amenities, but don't expect fanciness. They also provide free breakfast if you desire. All in all, it was a good experience.
The Miscellaneous The hotel is located in a good location with various shops nearby. There is a Lovina shopping mall and the Nebuta Museum in close proximity. There are various restaurants and convenient stores. But if you are looking for something more touristy, you might have to go out of the way a bit. They have automatic check in via kiosks. But in case they do not work, the staffs are very sincere and helpful in...
