Experience of the stay
This time, I came to Awars Inn Hankyu, which is located just a short distance from Oimachi Station on the Keihin Tohoku Line. It is a commercial facility integrated hotel, equipped with various facilities such as the Hankyu Oi Food Hall, cafes, restaurants, convenience stores, pharmacies, bathing facilities, a massage parlor, and more.
The "Ofuro no Osama Oimachi Branch" is located within the hotel, and guests can take a bath for 500 yen per entry. The HafH plan includes a single bathing ticket for this "Ofuro no Osama," which was issued at check-in.
The room I stayed in was a single room. It was very simple and felt just like a business hotel single room. Being close to the station and with a super public bath, I thought it was a pretty good deal for the price.
On the day of my stay, I was exhausted from walking around, so after checking in at around 8:00 PM, I went to the bath first. Despite it being a weekday, there were quite a number of guests, and it was bustling. There was no space even to enter the open-air bath. Unfortunately, I couldn't relax in the bath. I think it depends on the time of day, but please be careful as it gets crowded at night.
After bathing, I didn't feel like going out for dinner, so I ate in my room with beer and sushi that I bought in advance at the station. I also bought breakfast for the next morning at the same time and stored it in the fridge. After all, there is resistance to going out after taking a bath.
The bathroom in the room only had a shower and no bathtub. I used it to wake up with a hot shower in the morning.
As for my impressions of the stay, I felt it had a businessman's oasis atmosphere. There seemed to be quite a few men in the lobby, but there were also a few women. HafH also allows you to book twin rooms, so it might be good for two people traveling together.
If you are looking for a hotel with a bath and a good deal near Shinagawa, I highly recommend trying it out at least once.
Experiences during the trip
This time, I stayed for work, so I didn't do any sightseeing. I had lunch with a friend at Atre Shinagawa near Shinagawa Station, and then moved to Haneda Airport. I moved from Haneda to Itami and went home directly.
