Solid classic Japanese business Hotel right next to, as you might expect, Niigata station. The building is definitely retro, there's still a phone with the round dialer in the lobby! However, I was mostly happy with the facilities, staff were great, and the rooms smelled fresh and were clean.

It also has the not as great side of retro, the hallways definitely have some lingering age and smokiness, though to be clear the rooms themselves (the non-smoking ones) were great and did not have that at all, really impressive honestly. Also, maybe because I was there during the Niigata Matsuri, but the price was not really great for what you're getting on my dates.

Incredibly close to the train station. Also very friendly staff. Furthermore I had a bathtub in my room, that was great! The bed was also very comfortable, and the room was super clean.

The air conditioner in my room was quite old and couldn't cool down the room.

Very nice staff, good location, clean

The bright white light of the airco which was annoying at night

Very close to the train station and close proximity to a lot of good restaurants

I didn't like that my stay was too short

The location is perfect, very close to Niigata station and the price is affordable.

it’s in the downtown and not very far from Bandai area.

Location-wise, it's near the train station. you just have to cross the road. it's a fairly old hotel but serves the purpose. Like the usual Japanese hotels, the room is just small enough for a bed and few furnitures. there's a small fridge, desk, chair, full length mirror & open cabinet. there was, i believe, a non-functioning / unused, heather under the table. they could've taken it out to give more space for luggage. they still have this big old door key of which was unexpectedly convenient since they asked you to leave it at the reception. i went to a concert so i didn't have to bring that heavy key in my bag. i also asked them to receive and keep a letter mail for me before arrival and they were very efficient and accommodating. there was unlimited coffee, tea and some toiletries at the reception.

The receptionists spoke little English so they didn't explain about the robes placed outside the room or probably expected the guests to read notices posted on walls. All signs were not in English, so just be ready with your translator apps.

Location is convenient, just a few minutes from Niigata station exit. It’s clean. Wi-Fi speed was good for calls.

Booked it to stay after the fireworks in Nagaoka. I can understand that peak in demand changed the price, but ~¥25000 per night was not worth a value for money, it’s a bit old and has no facilities, aside from tea / coffee machine in the lobby. The bed was rock hard, so we didn’t rest well. However there was nothing really bad in this hotel, it’s just the balance of price and result wasn’t very good for us.
