โรงแรมรูท-อินน์ ทาเกะฟู อินเตอร์

The room was fairly large for Japan, and comfortable, I was on the top floor, non smoking comfort floor. And the breakfast was good. Staff was super. My only complaint is that because some floors were smoking, sometimes the lobby area smelled enough like cigarettes to give me a headache. Location is good for new Shinkansen station. Sidewalks ok.

It is a budget hotel that is clean, comfortable - honestly, it exceeded my expectations, and you get great value for money here. The breakfast buffet was tasty. The hotel is about a 10 min walk from some restaurants and a supermarket. It is an easy walk next to a major road and some rice fields, but it is lacking in streetlights and can be very dark. It is about a 15-20 min walk from Echizen-Takefu station. The staff is friendly. They do not speak English, but this is expected - some attempt to engage in basic Japanese (and a translator app) will go a long way. Plan ahead if you want to call a taxi - at check-out, I was told that the next available taxi would not be available for another 45 mins. As I had an appointment to keep, I ran to the info centre (which has very friendly staff) at the train station (~5 mins run?), where I was able to get a taxi to come in 10 mins.

去年もお世話になりました。 大浴場が付いている事 駐車場無料は基本車移動なので 大きなお風呂は嬉しいですし とても助かります。 徒歩圏内に大きなスーパーと 和食レストランがあるので 長期滞在でも困りません。 来年も利用したいです。
