    Honestly nothing. I was very satisfied with the stay.

    I stayed at this hotel a night prior to my Shimanami Kaido cycling trip. The room was extremely clean and comfortable and I had a lovely view of the river. The breakfast buffet spread was excellent with both international and Japanese cuisine, salads, and desserts. On day of my cycling trip, I woke up early to rent the bike I wanted and was able to park it at the hotel before finishing my breakfast and setting off.

    The hotel is well located and the staff are excellent. We had a mix up with our room on arrival but they sorted it out very efficiently. The breakfast caters mostly for Japanese visitors. Parking is very close but you have to pay for it. For UK visitors, the hotel is similar to a Premier Inn in style but much nicer in how it feels to be there. Onomichi is a brilliant place to visit and the Sakura Hotel is a great place to stay.

    Whilst I loved this hotel (as above), it was the most expensive hotel (of six) I stayed at during my visit to Japan and I do not feel there was anything really significant to set it apart and justify this, so it is simply on those grounds that I rate it less well in this domain (as above) and this is why I score it an 8, it would otherwise have been a 9.

    Great location. Loved watching the comings/goings along the quay/channel from the window. Close to station and temples walk, and if doing Shiminami Kaido cycle ride - close to ferry and bike hire places. Very helpful and genuinely welcoming staff. Good breakfast.

    There is only breakfast available which was very nice. The location was great for train travel and climbing the to the temples on the hillside walk. For dinner there is a very friendly Izakaya restaurant across the street. Parking is tenuous, costly nextdoor or cheaper with a longer walk, drop bags first. Our room had a fabulous view of the harbor.

    There was a strong mildew smell in the spotlessly clean bathroom, yet the bathroom looked like it had very recently been fully redone/refreshed! I examined the shower and saw that there was no caulking between the tub and the wall, so water would've been going right down into the crevice. I would've given this feedback at checkout, but I left early and used the checkout machine.

    Great location! Great size for repacking my luggage to prep for my flight back to Canada after 3 weeks in Japan. Also, handled my luggage that I got shipped ahead with care and had it waiting for me at the front desk.
