We have visited Hirosaki during Cherry Blossom Festival and we booked this hotel directly on the hotel website and credit card was not requested.||Check-in time is 3 pm and due to our early arrival we had to leave our luggage at the reception and we headed to Hirosaki Park to see the cherry blossoms.||The hotel is 15 mins on foot away from the railway station. Bus ticket costs ¥ 100 pp or you can take the taxi which costs around ¥ 700.||The hotel is 25-30 mins away from Hirosaki Park the place where cherry blossom festival takes part.

Iwate and during clear skies you can see the top of the mountatin full of snow.||The room had TV, charging station for iphone and samsung, hair dryer, mini fridge toiletries in the bathroom. Bathroom is small and you need to be careful when you enter it.||You can choose your pijamas or the pillow at the reception floor because the one from the room is very hard. There are no plug adapters available at the hotel so if you are not from Japan bring one with you.||||Breakfast||There is a very poor breakfast for europeans because they have only bread, butter, scrambled eggs and jam available for europeans while the rest of the food has nothing to do with europeans' tastes. Breakfast time is from 6.30 to 9 am. ||It was an enjoyable stay and I recommend to everyone this hotel if you want to see the cherry in blossom.||||Wifi||It's available in the public areas and in the room and is free of charge. ||||Onsen||There is only one onsen so there are different attending times for men and women.||||Check-out is very early, at 10 am, usual time however for Japan.||It was an enjoyable stay and I recommend to everyone this hotel if you want to see the...
