Shigekura Shrine

Very central hotel, clean space, and very friendly staff! Across from omicho market and 15ish min walk to all the train station and tourist sites! Close to bus station as well.

It is an idea of a hotel: beautiful, minimalistic, clean. However as sleeping accommodation it was not only very uncomfortable but outright dangerous. Room was small. There was a platform across the room about 10” high. Mattresses about 8” thick were on the platform. Space between two mattresses was so small that one could not walk there. So you have to crawl on your back to the head of the bed ( and to the foot of the bed to get up). Getting on and off the platform, especially in the middle of the night one was risking breaking an ankle or a head. There was no chair in the room so the only place to sit was on the bed. Since the bed was so low it was quite difficult to sit down and get up. As a cherry on the cake, the toilet and the shower were in separate rooms and the sink was in the bedroom. There was a tiny space next to the sink to put toiletries. There was a safe made of particle board(?!). I have to say that mattresses were quite good and the quality of the toilet and shower great.
