    The room had a smell. The pedestrian crossing sound from the outside was noisy, no soundproofing.

    Location is next to the train station.

    Welcome drink is for any guest, no matter when they are check in or cheek out. I didn’t use the welcome drink at at the check in . when I go back tired and would like the coffee and take a rest, the crew said that I can’t use. I don’t think it’s a problem that all guests should have the same standards. Every guest could pay a coffee in any conversation store. It’s cost not money!

    There was only one elevator and sometimes that meant it got busy and you had to wait a bit longer before it came. The Yukata was a little bit scratchy to wear. Not much the hotel could do about this, but I could hear the pedestrian crossing beeping from my room, which could have gotten annoying. It was mostly muffled out when I had the air conditioning on though.

    There is an onsen for guests' use on the top floor. You can look out at the surrounding mountains, and can see Mount Ichizuchi from the bath. That made it that little bit more special than some other onsen's I used. Very convenient location for train travel. I was very pleasantly surprised by this hotel, as I only booked it for the location. It is one minute walk from the train station and there are bus stops outside the train station which you can use to get to the Mount Ichizuchi ropeway. There is a machine for ice in reception.

    The place felt a bit outdated, and the rooms are very small. I didn't mind though.

    It's right next to the station, so if you have to be in Saijou for whatever reason (say, hiking), it's the perfect location. Very convenient and clean, and the staff was super kind. . Also, wonderful views of 石鎚山.

    Surrounding neighborhood kind of . . . dead.

    We hadn't planned on staying in Saijo, but because no other hotels were available in Western Shikoku, we decided to go there. We were pleasantly surprised. Very nice hotel with friendly staff and clean comfy rooms. Bonus was the bath on the top floor and relatively easy to access expressway.

    - The water pressure in our room was terrible. Both the shower and sink. I’m not sure if it’s an issue across rooms or just something wrong with ours - Now that I think about it, it makes sense, but all the pictures of the beautiful view from the onsen are only of the men’s one. The woman’s onsen windows are mostly covered and I wish they showed that. Also I wish it had been more clean.

    - Convenient location with parking a couple minutes walk from the hotel - Room and bed were comfortable - A good location for heading to Mt. Ishizuchi - I appreciated the key needed for the women’s onsen so it felt more safe

    my 6th floor room was at the end of the hall above the pedestrian crossing area, so I could hear its cheerful beeping.

    Nice Onsen. Nice bed linens. Great breakfast buffet.
