FAV HOTEL KUMAMOTO — Hotel in Kumamoto

Stayed here 2 nights. Kids loved the bunk beds and the layout of the room was very efficient - with the mini kitchenette, roomy living / eating area, and washing machine (thank you for the detergent capsules!). Checking in was easy as there was 1 staff on hand to help. The breakfast sandwiches / muesli were also yummy and we could eat at the hotel lobby or bring it back to our room.
