Difficult to find at first. And it'd be nice if there were lockers for peace of mind.

This property is located in the bus/train station complex and a short train ride to Kansai airport. Facilities look brand new and you have everything you need right there in the building as far as food and shopping. This is the gateway station to the Wakayama coast and a short ride back into Osaka. Walk into the mall and look for the signs on the elevator for S3 floor 6. Best and for sure the cleanest capsule hotel I have been in. I will be back!

快適でした

近くの体育館でバドミントンの試合があり、私はその応援・観戦のあと利用しました。当然ながら、選手の方々の利用もありました。団体の方々はどうしても音や声が出やすいですが、静かな雰囲気のおかげで気にならず過ごせました。

和歌山駅からすごく近いです。グランドホテル和歌山の6階に入り口があります。近くに近鉄やNIO コンビニなど買い物にも不自由しません。室内は綺麗です。女性エリアの利用者は海外の方が多かったです。ワイドタイプの部屋を選んだので室内にスーツケースも広げられて過ごしやすかったです。
