Hotel Route Inn Nabari

good?

Onsen is nice. But during peak hours we have to wait because space is limited and that is understable. Some guests taking their time using the onsen . Front desk should manage and limit the time usage specially during peak hours and guests are full. ( ex. 30-45 mins. since this is not the usual onsen which can accomodate large group.

Old hotel with poor facilities and unfriendly staff

I was given a stinky smoking room without asking

Breakfast was excellent. I enjoyed the food prepared by chef(s) using local vegetables every morning.

The public bath was very clean and the facility was really nice. The beds and pillows in the room were comfortable.

It seems only Route-Inn hotels don't understand what to do with non-Japanese guests. Always, at any Route-Inn I visit, the hotel staff ask to make a copy of my ID. I ask why and they only say "it's the rule". If I were a visitor from another country, coming to Japan for a short trip, I could understand asking to make a photocopy of my ID. But I am a resident of Japan. I have lived in Japan for many years. The staff asked me for my passport. Since I live in Japan, of course I don't bring my passport when I travel around the country. But when I said I don't have my passport, the staff asked for my residence card. Why??? Asking for my residence card is acknowledgment of the fact that I am a RESIDENT. So what is the purpose of making a copy of a RESIDENT'S ID?? Japanese people are residents, too. Do all IDs of all guests get photo copied?Maybe the rule that Route-Inn employees are told to obey is this: "Make a copy of any person who checks in that does not look Japanese and does not have a Japanese name." Because it seems it does not matter if someone is a visitor to Japan or lives in Japan, if the person is not Japanese, the hotel wants to copy their ID.

Location was fine close enough to walk to the train station, and they provided a bus to the larger station further away when we checked out.Breakfast was good, provided each morning which was convenient.Staff was very accommodating and helpful.

The beds where a little on the stiffer side as well as the pillows.The TV's where a bit out of date but worked good enough to use from my laptop.

Communal bath and Buffet BF great as usual.Bicycle was allowed in guest room (also as usual).

Impressed with the renown Japanese hospitality standard service. Staff went out of their way to answer our queries regarding a local tourist attraction. Breakfast was generous in variety.

Location was far (20 minutes walk) from train station.

Excellent. I wish breakfast would be served till 10am (I missed two days).

Bigger storage or shelves for guests who stay longer periods.

Can not recommend. There is no place to stay around this area.

A room was terrible. It was like this room was not replacing the air for a long time, so here was so dusty.I could not sleep at all because of stinky smell and dusty air. As a result of staying here, I have a sore throat.

Good

A lot of smoking rooms, on the day of my arrival there is no other option only smoking room.

Close ti Kikyogaoka station, and have shuttle bus to Nabari station.

Nothing in particular.

great stay, will use again.
