The hotel's location right on the beach in Karatsu offers a magical experience with excellent sea-facing rooms and delicious dining options. The service was warm and inviting, though some aspects needed improvement. The facilities provided a comfortable stay with a few opportunities for enhancement.

The hotel is worth the walk from the station and the train travel from Fukuoka through Saga. The rooms are dated and have a slight smell, especially the bathroom, but upgrading to a bigger room is recommended. The service is very friendly and mostly helpful, putting you in vacation mode, though not exceptional. The location is the highlight, right on the 4 km long 'Nijinomatsubara' beach backed by a pine forest, perfect for a magical walk. The dining experience offers a spread at Gepparou and above par breakfast options with recommendable fresh seafood.
