Experience of the stay
I had plans and stayed for two nights. I reserved each night separately, and since it was a self-check-in, I thought I would need to go to the front desk later for the procedures for my extended stay, but I was pleasantly surprised that it was arranged for two consecutive nights from the start.
The location was impeccable, with a view of the Aeon Mall, making it perfect for quick shopping or just lounging around.
The large public bath shows the "crowd situation" on a TV screen, but it is quite small, so make sure to time your visit well.
I appreciated being able to enjoy self-service drinks in the lobby (including some refreshing cold juices that were great during the hot season), and although check-out was also self-service, the hotel staff kindly asked if they should hold my luggage for me, which felt like a hospitality experience you don’t find in other hotels.
Experiences during the trip
It's not Okayama, but before we arrived, we went to Himeji Castle. It was extremely hot!
In front of Okayama Station, there is construction, and the famous Momotaro statue has temporarily moved to a corner that looks like this? Haha.
