This is a practical, no-frills hotel for travellers on a budget, solo visitors and couples who will spend their days out. At 57.02 euros per night in our reference sample, it was 26% below the city median.
It suits people who want to walk to the waterfront. Guests mention the seaside, the Nebuta Museum, A-Factory and local restaurants as close by.
Skip it if you travel with lots of luggage or need room to spread out in the bathroom. Guests often call the rooms spacious, but say the bathrooms and storage areas are tight.
Location and getting around
The address is Yasukata 1-3-5, Aomori. Guests give the location 9.0 out of 10.
Aomori Bay Bridge is about 0.2 km away, roughly a 3-minute walk on a straight-line estimate. The Sannai-Maruyama Site and the Aomori Museum of Art are each about 3.8 km away, around 48 minutes on foot. That is far for most people, so plan on public transport or a taxi for both.
Specific transport links from the hotel are not confirmed in our data. Check the route to the places you want to see before you go.
What guests say
The score is 8.2 out of 10 from 628 reviews. That placed it joint sixth on review score among the 10 eligible properties we compared in Aomori, so it is a good score rather than a top one.
Location and breakfast lead the praise. The buffet changes and includes Japanese dishes and local specialties, which guests describe as tasty.
The recurring criticism is space. Rooms are often described as spacious, but bathrooms and storage are tight, so expect to keep luggage organised.
Price and value against our other two picks
The reference price was 57.02 euros per night, about 114.04 euros for two nights, against a city median of 77.31 euros. These are reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults, not live quotes. Check today's price for your dates.

What you get here is the basics done well: free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a 24-hour front desk and a buffet breakfast. Room size beyond guest comments, noise and cancellation terms have not been assessed.
