Hotel Trend Matsumoto

Overall the room was a bit small. The sleeping area was fine for Japanese standards but the doorway/hallway and bathroom are cramped. The shower hose is combined with the sink faucet awkwardly and it's very hard to use the shower hose well. When I went to lay down on the futon, I saw a lot of hairs on the sheet. I don't think they were mine from when I set up the futon, although it's possible. Breakfast was fairly good, maybe a 4/5. Good variety of Japanese foods and all-you-can-eat.

Staff was nice. Parking space was around 3mins walking distance. Convenient store and restaurants were nearby. Although the hotel was old but it was clean.

Great service despite the language barrier. The room was decently sized by Japanese standards. A bit of rumbling of trains and the street could be heard within the room but not too disruptive. Overall good value; would recommend for those looking for a good balance between comfort and price.

Good hotel, it was very close to everything to have to see. But the room was very small.

Very near the station with easy access to the town centre and Matsumoto Castle. Friendly and helpful staff ideal for a budget stay. But the rooms are small and the air conditioning wasn't really working. But not a big issue.
