各客室(バスルーム含む)の古さは致し方ないにしても、部屋はかなり狭く、少ない荷物でも窮屈に感じるホテルです。非常にリーズナブルな価格で宿泊できますが、このホテルの最大の特徴はそれのみ、といった印象で、少なくとも大きなスーツケースを持っての宿泊は全くお勧めできません(そもそもスーツケースを広げるスペースが皆無に等しいです)。 ホテル周辺には飲食店は無く、コンビニエンスストアも徒歩5分程度のところにあるのが最も近いコンビニエンスストアです。レストランも大津駅まで行かなければならず(ホテルと大津駅は徒歩10分程度)、特に天候の悪い日は食事や食料の調達も億劫に感じるでしょう。 とは言え、京都市内や大阪市内のホテルと比較すると、場合により半額程安い価格で宿泊できるのは非常に魅力に感じるでしょう。大津は大阪まで1時間程度で行けるため、客室の狭さに目を瞑れるなら、コンパクトな荷物で単なる寝泊まりの場所として利用するといいかもしれません。 スタッフの接客対応は、適切な距離を保ちつつ丁寧でした。また、レンタサイクルのサービスを利用することが出来ます。 While the age of the rooms (including the bathrooms) is understandable, the real issue here is the extremely limited space. Even with light luggage, the room feels cramped, and if you're traveling with a large suitcase, this hotel is not recommended at all - there’s virtually no space to open one. The biggest advantage of this hotel is the very low price. However, that’s about it. There are no restaurants nearby, and the closest convenience store is about a 5-minute walk away. For any proper dining options, you'll need to head to Otsu Station, which is about a 10-minute walk from the hotel. On rainy days, even getting food can feel like a hassle. That said, compared to hotels in Kyoto or Osaka city centers, the cost can be nearly half, which is definitely appealing to budget travelers. Since Otsu is only about an hour from Osaka, if you're traveling light and just need a place to sleep, this hotel might still work for you despite the downsides. Staff service was polite and respectful, maintaining an appropriate level of distance. They also offer bicycle rental, which could be a nice option for exploring the area.

This is a Hotel Alpha One Group hotel located about 5 minutes on foot from the south exit of Otsu Station. If you go out from the south exit of Otsu station to Route 1 and head east (left hand side), you will find it immediately. It's been a long time since it was built, so the facilities are a little old. Wi-Fi is also not provided as a hotel facility. But it was not so inconvenient because the front desk would lend you points for wireless LAN access. Amenities were standard. The front desk was kind and I had no complaints about that. I think the most important thing here is the price. We stayed during the fall foliage season, and while the prices of other accommodation facilities around the area were skyrocketing, this was the only place we were able to stay at at a reasonable price. It is close to Otsu Station, and there is a convenience store within walking distance. You can go to Kyoto city right away, so if you want to stay cheaply when you go around Kyoto, Otsu, or Sakamoto, I think it's a good hotel to consider.
