Hotel Taisei Annex

My reservation included a sauna, but they said it was closed due to construction. They didn't even apologize or offer a partial refund. I should have gone somewhere else. ㅠ

I was glad that there was a large public bath. I contacted them several times before my stay, and they responded promptly.

Even though I checked in late at night, I was treated very pleasantly. I was also glad that I was able to choose my favorite amenities. The room was quiet, so I was able to get a good night's sleep. I'd like to stay here again if I have the opportunity.

This was my first time staying at this hotel, visiting my aunt. It's been years since I've stayed in Kagoshima (everything about the scenery has changed so much since I was a child...)←It's changed so much in just a few years... I remember this hotel used to be Tokyu Inn... (this was decades ago though...) So...it's a long-established hotel, so some people might be concerned about the small details??? (soundproofing←you can hear people's voices in the hallway a lot, and the usual door opening and closing sounds with the neighbors, and vibrations from above...)←I was alone, so I understand that it was easier to hear sounds... It seems to be well-cleaned, but...the only thing that bothers me is...the black dots in the joints around the bathtub are a bit bothersome ^^; The scenery can be said for Kagoshima city in general, but... It has become so modernized that you can no longer see Sakurajima in its entirety from anywhere like before...it's a little sad...I feel nostalgic thinking that Sakurajima must have been visible diagonally from the window of my room in the past... Unfortunately, the view from the window is similar to that of a business hotel in the city, so I gave it a bad review (-_-;) The staff at the front desk were very friendly and answered my questions kindly, and I felt a warmth from them that is a little different from the business-like attitude of city hotels (^o^) ← Most people in Kagoshima are kind, so if you get lost when sightseeing or where to find a bus stop, please ask the locals around you (not 100% guaranteed though ^^;) I think you'll be happy with the kindness of others (^o^) ※ The photo I posted (a photo of Aeon, almost directly in front of Kagoshima Chuo Station) Do not cross over to the Aeon side, turn your back to Kagoshima Chuo Station and walk along the road on your left for less than 5 minutes ~ There is a tram stop right in front of the hotel (^o^) ※ Within Kagoshima city, you can take a tram or a bus (there are two other bus companies operating buses in addition to the city bus, so even if you are going to the same place, the stop may be the same depending on the bus company. (←We recommend that you check the number before boarding) ※If you are staying for a few days, we recommend purchasing an IC card (regular IC cards cannot be used) Their own IC cards are sold at the bus terminals in Tenmonkan and Kagoshima Chuo Station, so I think it will be easier to get on and off if you charge it and use it~^^; Anyway, Kagoshima city used to be centered on trams... but now it's almost only the line that runs right next to it... buses are the main means of transportation (it's like Kyoto ←Kagoshima doesn't have a subway...JR is the only train other than the tram^^;)

I've used it three times. The staff were friendly and the rooms were clean, so I was very satisfied. I'd like to use it again.

The coin laundry was in a different building, which was inconvenient.

It was close to the station and had everything you need, so it was convenient. The staff were friendly and I was happy.
