Kaminokuni 3 Stars Hotels

"Immediately upon arriving, I was warmly welcomed by the front desk and made to feel like a priority with their proactive and efficient help. The whole process for my check in took less than five minutes and the front desk spoke perfect English which was a breath of fresh air. Anytime I walked past the front desk, they were attentive and would greet me warmly. The location is so convenient! Everything is within walking distance and has two Hakodate food specialties Lucky Pierrot and Hasaegawa yakibentos just a few steps away. The capsules are well maintained and clean with a lock box for storage of valuables. The bathrooms were cleaned multiple times a day and my favorite part was the showers! Typically in Japanese hostels/capsule hotels, they have the same very small shower unit. But here, the showers are spacious as well as having a nice area for you to undress and store your belongings with a tiered storage unit. Overall, a wonderful experience and I will be returning on my next trip to Hakodate. "

"It’s close to the Shinkansen which suited my needs. Not much in immediate the area as others have noted but it is only a 20 minute train trip into Hakodate. "

"This two-story home is so beautiful! It’s decorated in a modern, minimalist, somewhat Scandinavian style. I originally booked this place because I fell in love with the bathtub picture and thought that the extra space would be nice. Once I entered the place, I was blown away by the little details like the comfortable bed and bedding, how soft the towels were, and how nice it was to listen to the record player and even just gazing at the ceiling beams. (I felt transported to another place simply relaxing in the home and listening to music.) It’s hard to describe the peaceful, cozy feeling one gets from soaking in these thoughtful interior design elements. I want to go back already! One thing to note is to make sure you get a number code for the door to check in. (Due to a system error, I didn’t receive this message. I called the host and he was very quick in walking me through check-in.) All my communication with the host was warm and welcoming, enhancing my stay even further. I would 100% recommend staying here, and I myself would love to go back someday. Hopefully soon. "
