"This hotel was our base for 7 nights, split across two bookings, primarily due to its unbeatable location right across from Hakata Station.
TLDR: We would definitely book this hotel again if we had the chance, but mainly because of the location and the service.
LOCATION:
Being next to Hakata Station offers incredible convenience with direct access to multiple shopping malls and easy, affordable transit to the airport (a 15-minute, $25 USD taxi for 5 people with 6 bags, or an easy subway ride if you're traveling light). A drugstore and convenience store are also steps away.
ROOM:
Our Superior Twin room (approx. 250 sq/ft) was a good size and generally clean, though the carpet had some stains. The AC and air filter was excellent, but the Wi-Fi was inconsistent, frequently disconnecting despite fast speeds when working. Blackout curtains excellent and windows allow for slight opening if needed. Besides that, they have in-building coin-op laundry service on 2 floors. Their breakfast was just okay.
SERVICE:
The staff were genuinely helpful and courteous. Most front-desk staff spoke English well, assisting us with calls to a local clinic and arranging taxis (for a fee).
TIP:
If you really need a taxi, get the 'GO' taxi app. You can call a taxi yourself w/ that. Very easy to use and they accept US credit card payments."
