In addition to the hotel's own parking, several affiliated parking lots nearby make it easy to arrive by car.
Rooms

Single rooms have a bed about 90-140 cm wide, doubles about 140-150 cm, and twins have two beds about 90-120 cm wide side by side, with a fairly narrow gap between them. The Single C type is a standard size of about 9 sq m. Rooms with a washing machine and a mini kitchen can only be booked by phone. Consecutive nights are treated as an eco plan, and as a rule the room is not cleaned from the second night onward. Checkout is at 11 a.m., but it can be extended until 4 p.m. for 600 yen per hour.
Dining
Breakfast is served as a Japanese-Western buffet in the 10th-floor restaurant, with around 15 dishes always on offer, including Ehime's specialty jakoten (deep-fried fish cake). It is served from 6:30 a.m. to 10 a.m., with last entry at 9:45 a.m., and guests on room-only plans can buy a breakfast ticket at the front desk. Meals for co-sleeping children are treated the same as an adult's meal, and no separate children's meals are prepared.
Baths and Onsen
There is a men's communal bath on the 10th floor and a women's communal bath on the 2nd floor, both filled with alkaline simple onsen piped from Okudogo Onsen 6 km away. Each has a sauna, a cold-water bath and an open-air bath, and the hotel describes the colorless, clear water as a "bijin no yu" (beauty bath) that leaves the skin smooth.
