This hotel is close to the Hakodate train and bus stations, and thus is very convenient in terms of transportation. In addition, there are seafood markets and restaurants around the area, and thus is also very convenient in terms of dinning.

The hotel staff are friendly and helpful. The room is clean and comfy with all the basic toiletries that you need. Location wise is also very strategic as you can walk to the JR station and morning fish market in less than 5min. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would recommend this place to other travellers.

A good priced hotel at a good location.
The hotel is so close to the morning market. Very easy to enjoy nice seafood every morning. The room is not big but functional. If you drive, take note that you need to use the public car park which lot can be unavailable as it is quite small. The fee of the car park is not by day, rather per entry, so if you move in and out of your lot, you have to pay everytime. Hotel offers discount rate for parking.

Near to hakodate ekimae tram stop and about 10 mins walk to JR hakodate station. Eateries within walkable distance. Room is clean. Need to open the window during winter as it is quite hot even though we adjusted the heater to 16 degree.

Great location but unpleasant stay
Location is great few min way from Hakodate station, tram stop and fish market , front desk service is pretty good, but I will not stay here again. I booked 2 rooms for 1 night and both rooms had a strong drainage smell, despite opening the windows, n spraying room diffuser provided in the room, the smell didn’t go away. As room face the main rd, it’s also noisy.

Rooms need to be aired out. First one had a strong damp smell, but they gave me another which was better though still a bit stale.This seems fairly common in these business hotels though. Many have a faint cigarette smell in the non smoking rooms as well but not bad enough to bother me .
