Negative Reviews
Room doors lock automatically
Several guests found it unsettling that room doors lock after a short time and you need to call reception to exit; while staff can unlock doors quickly, some found the procedure inconvenient.
Limited English and Japanese-only entertainment
Multiple reviewers noted that staff and in-room entertainment (TV programs, VOD, karaoke) are predominantly Japanese with little or no English or subtitles, which may be limiting for non-Japanese speakers.
Location and access can be inconvenient
Some guests reported the hotel is a bit far from central Matsuyama, the entrance can be hard to spot at night, and local train/ferry connections can be slow or patchy, making late-night arrival or onward travel less convenient.
Occasional maintenance or utility issues
A few reviews mentioned problems such as a non-working Jacuzzi, unstable shower temperature, electrical outages, or in-room charging cables not functioning; staff resolved some issues, but they affected comfort for some stays.
Occasional cleanliness and noise concerns
While many found rooms clean, a minority reported cleanliness lapses (e.g., cigarette debris, dust, dirty fridge edges) and sporadic noise from nearby parties or people outside late at night.
