4/10 Poor
Steven
14 Feb 2026
**Negatives: *What an insanely uncomfortable bed....and I was in a "Comfort" cabin or some such. (I'd hate to try the "standard" or "economy" rooms.) *The hand soap by the sink reeked of Old Spice ("Oblivious Old Man" scent) and the body wash in the shower stank of Irish Spring -- and those are two smells that I would rather NOT be reminded of. *I was ready for a small, noisy room -- I bought two pairs of noise-cancelling earphones, after all -- but sitting on the bed made my backside hurt. *With the bed ruled out, there ~was~ a mini-sofa and a small table that I might have used to work on my laptop, but the room was so tiny, its limited space was a toss-up between the table and my suitcase -- and there was nowhere else to put my suitcase. *When I checked in, I got a sheet of paper telling me I'd have to vacate from 10am to 3pm every day, but that was never enforced. I guess the hotel's keeping that little restriction in the back pocket or something. (Ugh.) But if I WERE to vacate....where I would go? There's no lounge in the hotel. (Not on the one floor I could access, anyhow.) Ugh, what a miserable stay. **Neutral: *Any reviews suggesting this place is "close to Okayama Station" are confusing the train station with the nearby tram stop; Okayama Station is an 18min walk away, according to Google Maps. **Bright spots: The toilets were new, clean and worked great. The showers were pretty nice, although the blow-dryers in the shower room were dusty and a bit foul.
