What People are saying
It was OK.
Stephenbkk20156on 08/06/2017 12:00There seems still to be a boycott of APA hotels by Japan's ubiquitous Chinese tourists. A disagreement with the owner about how beneficial the Nanjing Massacre was, I think. Maybe that's how I got in here at the weekend when all comparable hotels in town were full or charging a lot more.
Fairly convenient location, once you can figure out how to get behind the Aeon Mall. Not far from the JR station, if you go the right way.
Business-like check in and just a key drop-off on check out, so I didn't really have contact with staff during my stay.
Room was OK, if a little pokey. On the second day I was left a free bottle of water for my cooperation in not asking for a complete change of towels and bedding.
Not much more to say. It was OK.
Good location but the room is dated

+Good location, near the Okayama station (8min walk), AEON shopping mall with super market and stores like Zara and H&M (2min walk), 10min walk to the restaurants area (in front of Okayama station area), Okayama castle (25min walk).

+Fridgerator, TV, kettle, hairdryer, pants press machine.
+Towels, schampoo, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, razor, comb, hair tie, q-tips, shower cap, body sponge, slipper.
+Ice machine, laundry and vending machine in some floors.
-Bad wi-fi, losing the connection now and then, but the wi-fi is free.
-Carpet on the floor (I hate carpet on the floor, no matter how clean it is).
-No disturb sign to put on the door.
-Some noise, bad isolation walls.
-Little dirt as the room is old.
+/-
No air conditioner, but a fan is available.
1050 Yen for the breakfast (didnt eat, so dont know if its worth the money or not).

Good Location
Paths2014on 15/01/2017 08:57It's not very far from the Okayama trIan station. It opposites the best shopping mall, Aeon. The room is small. Senior has to be careful to use the bath room which is about twenty centimeters above the room level.
Non-smokers need not apply
buellerfon 21/11/2016 11:45if you are a non-smoker, this hotel is not for you. The entire hotel reeks of smoke, and there is no such thing as a non-smoking room. The rooms are dated and the room carpet was worn. The breakfast was not good - food is poorly heated and the potatoes and eggs were cold. Price for the stay was also high, but for the one night we stayed, there were no other choices, so we were stuck paying a high rate
Poor and Shabby Hotel
Ukulele-sam1951on 07/10/2016 16:52Traditional Japanese businessmen hotel.
Location is good within 20 mins walk from the JR Okayama station and next to Aeon mall.
Room was small and semi double room Should not offer for couple or two adults, guest room was not clean, furniture were broken and need to renovation.
Wifi not stable during our 2 nights, at least call front few time to remind that the issue.
Will not stay again unless they done the fully renovation.
