Everything was going smoothly until we ran into this Asian front desk lady with a katakana name on the night of August 17th. My friend speaks fluent Japanese, so we were communicating in Japanese just fineâuntil she saw our passports and suddenly switched to English. Excuse me? What part of our Chinese passports screams âWe speak flawless Englishâ? (Unfortunately, we do, but thatâs not the point.)Hereâs the deal: We were supposed to switch to a sea-view room that day. Weâd already returned the keys to our old room and stored our luggage in the morning since the new one wasnât ready. Everything was cool (shoutout to the other staff for being awesome) until we met this woman. She was squinting at the screen like she couldnât see a damn thing. My friend was just spelling out her name in Chineseânot even looking at the screenâwhen this lady suddenly yells, âThis is personal information!â as if sheâd been waiting for the chance to snap at someone.After what felt like an eternity of her fumbling around, she finallyâsomehowâfinished whatever she was doing. Then she hits us with, âDo you already have a key?â Seriously, who the hell would be standing there talking to her if they already had a key? Then she goes, âIs your room XXXX?â And Iâm like, âNo, itâs XXXX.â Turns out, the number she mentioned was our new room. So what was even the point of asking? Do they usually make guests guess their room numbers before handing over the keys? Is that how this place operates, or was she just being stupid?I donât know what her problem was, but her âserviceâ was straight-up...

Toilet paper, slippers and comb is also free flow. The bath gel, shampoo and conditioner is also nice. The bathroom has a bath tub.If you are renting a car, you would need to check on the parking process more carefully as there are only 4 parking lots associated with the hotel. There is other public parking around the area that is relatively cheap but you would need to depend on luck for availability. There is a Lawson nearby so you can pickup the groceries you need from there. Thatâs the plus as there arenât much other amenities around. Service will need to depend who you have on duty. As I stayed a week. We had a range of very nice service persons to ones that are not so patient as they often struggle to understand English. Thankfully thereâs google...
