Hotel Bintang 2 di Prefektur Ishikawa, Jepang

友人と二人で2泊しましたが、一人暮らし用のワンルームの作りだったので、友達の部屋に遊びにきた感覚でした。 タオルや歯ブラシ、シャンプー類も用意されていました。 距離も金沢駅から歩いて15-20分程度でそんなに遠くないのに割安で泊まれたことが何より良かったです。 掃除などはされていると思いますが古びた感じはあるので、潔癖症とかでなく、金沢で安く泊まりたい方は全然許容範囲かと思います。 強いて言えば前払いが出来たらよかったです。 集金にいらっしゃるためその調整が少し面倒でした。

The dorm was quite tricky to find on the sidewalk, walking from JR Kanazawa station, the sign was on a wall behind me, in the walkway leading into the building it was. One should look out to the left once you’ve reached the building. There were no staff when I checked in late at night around 10pm, but I received an email beforehand detailing the guest forms I should fill up and some other information. Once I arrived, there were other clear instructions about my bunk, luggage storage and house rules. The entry area had several books and leaflets about the area and a map indicating eateries and sightseeing locations recommended by staff, a useful touch. Some of it were in English too. The bunk was perfectly acceptable for a quick night sleep. The bed was wide and had lockable lockers to the side. Refreshments like drinks, snacks and noodles were also available for a small fee and payment was done via a tin box. Overall, very good value for money and it provided an opportunity to chat with other travellers staying by there. I chatted with someone from Taiwan and a local working at Kanazawa station’s tourist information centre. He was snowed in for the night and it’s worth noting that, it would be a struggle to haul luggage through heavy snow on the way to the property.
