いい意味で驚き。 普通のビジホだと思ったけど、大浴場と朝食がいいとこんなに違うのかと思った。しかも値段も大して変わらない。これなら断然スマイルホテルの方が良いと思った。 施設の古さは多少あるけど、十分清潔だし、スタッフのサービスも良い。駐車場は満車だったけど近隣に駐車場がある。 他と迷ってたら、一度泊まってみてください。

川口付近で泊まるには最適なホテル

ホテルは不可な部分がなく、ほとんどの宿泊者が安心して過ごせる環境です。 バスルームの水圧が少し弱いくらいがネガティブポイントでしょうか。 こちらのホテルの特筆すべきは、朝食です。 ビュッフェで選べるおかずの種類がとても豊富です。 泊まる際に、朝食をつけない選択肢はないとおもいます。 是非、朝ごはんをしっかり食べて出かけたいホテルです。

駅からは思っていたより近くわかりやすかった。 テイクアウトもできる飲食店やコンビニもあり部屋飲みの準備には十分。 部屋は昔ながらのよくあるユニットバスで可もなく不可もなく。 使用してはいないけれど、大浴場があり男女時間帯で分かれている。女性の時間は入り口に鍵がかかるのでフロントに声をかけるとのこと。 安全性はあるかもしれないけれど、場所がフロントの真横なので気持ち的に出入りしにくい。部屋着スリッパも可能とは言え、お風呂上がりまんまの姿をスタッフの方やチェックイン中の他のお客様に見られるのでちょっと使うのは躊躇われる。されが気にならなければ部屋のお風呂よりはゆっくり入れるかも。

静かだし、コスパもよく、銭湯も無料で入れ、駅からの距離も良く、コンビニも近くていい事尽くしだが、悪い点を言うと 給湯の温度調節が昔のお湯と水で調整する奴なのでめんどくさい テレビ付けた瞬間に「インターネット」てなる癖に繋がらない WiFi初日は繋がったのに2日目何故か繋がらない 他はスタッフの対応も良く、それが気にならなければ泊まるには東京も近いしいいホテルだと思います。 85点かなー
