The hotel offers a great seaside location with spacious rooms and a view of the harbor. While the convenience of a smartphone and other amenities is a nice touch, I did find the breakfast selection limited and the service could improve in terms of communication. Overall, it provided decent value for money, but there were aspects that could enhance the experience.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is located at Kobe port. The room was spacious and offered late checkout, which was a nice bonus.
