"The room is huge. I was on top floor with the habour view and I can see customers enjoying the little pool and sunbathing. It was also very close to the fresh squid restaurant which I heard from a Japanese chef that it was the best raw squid you can have in Kyushu. Overall highly recommended. Driving back to town is about 20 mins so it is actually quite convenient."
