It was a very pleasant stay! The staff are very helpful, gave me some great recommendations for food. Also they are very thoughtful to have helped arrange everything for you, from the time of breakfast to the moment you leave the hotel, they have got it all sorted and made sure also that we are fine with every decisions. The room has a good view facing the ocean where you can see the sunset, and it's super clean! Would highly recommend

We stayed in a maisonette on the second floor.
The maisonette's stairs were practically a ladder.
The shampoo and body soap provided seemed to be intended for use after swimming in the ocean, so I recommend bringing your own for everyday use.
The rooftop offers a panoramic view of the ocean and harbor!

It was clean and had a great ocean view. The reception was friendly, and parking was convenient.
However, it was cramped, so there wasn't enough space to open two suitcases. The pool was also small, so I didn't use it.
Still, there were restaurants nearby, and it was clean, so I'd definitely visit again!

The sheets and bed had mold in several places; the space was cramped; the walls were covered in stains; the suitcase couldn't be opened; the toothbrush was difficult to use; and they charged extra for two extra bottles of water, even though the price was already HKD 1200. The value for money was extremely low. Choose carefully.

The hotel has a simple design, with each room facing the harbor. Two bottles of mineral water are provided daily, and the trash cans are large – great! There's a microwave and vending machine with ice on the third floor, and they also provide large paper cups for ice, which is wonderful. However, the refrigerator is tiny, only for refrigeration, not freezing. The lack of shelves in the shower is a bit inconvenient. Breakfast is very good, with all the food being healthy; my favorite was the island tofu hot soup. There are many restaurants around the hotel. 200 meters ahead is a takeaway charcoal grill skewers shop; a box of four skewers costs an average of 600 NTD and is delicious. 350 meters behind is the nearest FamilyMart to the beach area. It's only a 10-minute drive to Don Quijote or AEON. For breakfast, you can go to the nearby rest stop (3 minutes drive) for noodles or seafood, and you can also buy souvenirs, bento boxes, bread, etc. – excellent amenities.

Thanks to you, I had a happy and comfortable first solo trip.
The Korean staff and the Mogeun staff were friendly, and the location was perfect, allowing me to visit the Horumon-ga BBQ restaurant across the street twice.
The parking lot was a bit small, but it wasn't a major inconvenience.
I'd love to stay here again if I ever visit again.
Thank you.

The room was small but very clean. Breakfast started at 6:30 am, and the hotel is right near the pier; you can go diving right from the back door, saving a lot of time!
Going out to shop and eat isn't far at all; it's basically a ten-minute walk to any busy area. I'd definitely use it again next time!

There are few parking spaces, so it's quite a walk to the second parking lot.
It's very difficult if you have luggage.
The food had been highly rated, so I included breakfast, but the selection was limited and not to my liking.

The room is small but fully equipped. It can only accommodate one suitcase. The room is cleaned by the Japanese and is really clean. Every room has a sea view. The sea view of Miyako Island is unbeatable. It is very comfortable to take a walk on the beach next to the hotel. It is perfect for retirement.

The hotel is not far from the airport, and it is convenient for transportation and dining. It is next to the sea and there is a beach next to it🏖️ (I met a super cute cat)
The room faces the sea, the sea view of the port is also very good, the breakfast is also very good, and there are local specialties, great👍
Finally, thank you very much to the staff at the front desk who can speak Chinese! Thank you for your patience and help! The other staff are also very warm and friendly. Next time I come to Miyako, I want to continue to stay in this hotel

The hotel is right next to Taira Port, and the room has a nice sea view. It costs less than 2,000 yen to take a taxi to the airport. There are some restaurants nearby, and there is a Family Mart within one kilometer. It is relatively close to painagama beach (the beach is average). To take the bus to Ikema Island, you need to walk about 15 minutes to the Citizen Theater.
The room is small but has all the necessary facilities, with a sea view of Taira Port, and the bathroom is well waterproofed. The hotel breakfast is also good, with fresh pineapple, orange, raw tuna, Okinawa local breakfast, and common scrambled eggs and sausages. The hotel has a swimming pool, but the whirlpool is empty.
There are only two shared washing machines, washing + drying for 700 yen for 100 minutes. You have to queue during peak hours. The vending machines and microwave facilities are on the 4th floor. The hotel is decorated in an industrial style, which feels good.
The hotel staff is friendly. Check-in and key collection will be after 3 o'clock, but you can check in in advance and store your luggage for free. The hotel does not have Chinese services, and English is also a bit urgent, but they have a translator, so communication is not a big problem.
