There are so many complaints on check-in. But no improvement at all. Spare at least 20 minutes for this poor check-in system.

"I did not receive the confirmation email sent by the hotel in advance, which led to a mismatch between the check-in procedure and the instructions posted next to the machine upon arrival. After struggling for a while, I had to call to successfully complete the check-in. The person responsible for designing the check-in process should reflect on this. The sofa was rather dirty."

The hotel does not have any registration staff. It is a self-service method, but the check-in method requires a reservation number, but I did not receive any message. I also left a message on the official website before departure, but did not receive any reply. I didn't care much about it when I arrived at the hotel and got it in front of the self-service machine the night I arrived. I couldn't check into the room after 20 minutes. I finally asked a local Japanese to help me call the hotel to get the room key. Fortunately, I was able to check in in the end

Very interesting way to stay Remember to receive the hotel confirmation number Thanks to the Ctrip housekeeper for helping me contact and get the hotel confirmation number after I confirmed that I had not received it... The machine shown in the picture is for check-in After entering your personal information, someone will call you to confirm your ID. I'll give you the password to open the key box below. Then finally I can get the key. The room is the same as the photo, soundproofing is average Below is a hello Kitty store. It’s easy to go too far if you’re not careful.

10 minutes walk from Kamakura Station. It is located right in front of Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. When you hear that the grounds are connected to the Hojo clan, you might think it's austere, but it's a functional and modern hotel. Check-in is also unmanned, so you don't have to meet anyone. The room is about the size of a one-room apartment for a single person, and the interior is modern, chic, and clean. We also have the necessary supplies. The window is just a light, so you can't see the scenery. I was happy with the bath gel. The rooftop is a common space for guests, with a table and chairs, so we ate breakfast while looking at the cherry blossoms in full bloom at Dankatsu and the torii gate of Hachimangu Shrine. By the way, there is no restaurant, so I bought breakfast at a convenience store. There is a Sanrio Cafe on the 1st floor. Considering the location, functions, and price, it would be perfect as a base for sightseeing. The only complaint I have is that when entering the guest information on the check-in screen, I had a hard time not realizing that I had pre-entered the information and had to scroll through it. From 6 ★, I reduced it by 1 ★ to 5 ★.
