Ukimido Temple Tours and Activities

Handy for the railway station and on bus routes. Staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms very well equipped and washer/dryer is great. Only downside is it’s beside a very busy road with lots of car traffic and was noisy. The not certain types of room are on one side so you can’t move even if there is space.

I chose the Japanese Style King room, and after 3 nights, I have to say, I picked the wrong room. It is not comfortable. It's not easy to navigate the room with no chairs or regular table. The bed is low on the floor and the sitting is on the floor, so expect to stand up from the floor a lot if you choose this room. The room is 375 sq ft (which is not bad), but it feels very small and crammed. The bathroom also feels small. There is no room to place your suitcases, so we ended up placing them on the sitting area. There is no wardrobe to hang your clothes, and there is little shelving. Expedia lists this as a 4-star, I say it's a 3-star. Amenities is limited. There is no coffee in the room. The hotel doesn't have ta q bin pickup service (luggage out-going transfer). Luckily there is a ta q bin office nearby. Location-wise, it's great. Omicho market is right across the street. And a couple of small malls also nearby. Hakomachi next door has many restaurants inside too. The hotel is also within walking distance to main attractions. Also, it's quiet. Yes, I'd stay here again, but definitely in a more normal room, and lower my expectation of the '4-star' rating.

Great location. Good value. Rooms are a little small and tight for two people
