Volcano

Likes: The unit has a very pleasing interior with modern amenities. Access is secure, and is gained by entering codes on touch panels. The kitchen is well equipped. The bedroom is spacious, which was very welcome in Japan. Proximity to the train station and local streetcar station, and to the Sakurajima ferry, was very convenient. Having a grocery nearby was convenient, since we did quite a bit of cooking in the kitchen. Areas for improvement: There is not enough lighting at the wash basin, making it difficult to see when brushing teeth or shaving. Would help to have a recessed spotlight above the wash basin, or lighting above the mirror. Also, lighting above the right bed is dim. Would be desirable to have a recessed spotlight above the right bed. Did not like: The proximity to the train station resulted in a constant loud rumble of trains coming and going that was bothersome, that one has to block out.

Excellent kitchen, set the standard for my trip. Comfortable bed, quiet once the trains stop, not terribly loud considering the station is 200m away. Good bathroom, strong washing machine, plenty of kitchen tools, counter space, and an ample refrigeator.

Solid spacious place, great design. Wish you could check in a bit earlier.

Great stay, nice view of the volcano from the room. supermarket within 5min walk for easy grocery shopping to cook Location is great but its close to the railway so the train noise might be an issue for some travellers (not for us though it is perfect)
