Hiroshima Town Hotel

Pros +

• cheap, clean and good location. Friendly staff and funny slippers. You can rent a room by the hour which is probably a great boon to some entrepreneurs.
• It was in a good location to get to many sites, and not far from the bus and JR station. The staff were friendly. Everything seemed clean. Small refrigerator in the rooms and a microwave in the lobby.
• The front staff was very nice. I was confused, I thought that booking.com paid them but no, you must pay there. The front staff worker was patient with me even though I was sure booking had paid them, and helped me figure out that I actually had to pay. I felt like an idiot, but she was very nice and im so thankful for being patient!! The room was amazing and the location was good, right next to a convenience store and near the nightlife area of hiroshima with plenty of food spots and bars near-by.

Cons -

• No sound insulation which is fine if you have considerate neighbours but with the best will in the world no-one can be expected to remain silent all the time. Even by Japanese standards it was a small room. There were just two clothes hangars and a small rail but no other storage space. The bed was uncomfortable and the duvet etc was plastic.
• It seemed like an older hotel with small beds. The neighborhood around the hotel was mostly nightlife and not much for us to do in the area. No kettle for tea/coffee in the room.
• Nothing, it was amazing!
