First of all, accessibility is very good. Take Exit 2 from Nakasu Kawabata Station and turn right back. There is a yellow sign that says Matsumoto Kiyoshi (matsu kiyo). If you turn into that alley and enter, the hotel is right in front of you.
When you enter the first floor lobby, the lobby lounge extends to the second floor, making it feel like the first floor of a hostel in the United States or Europe. There is also a happy hour from 17:30 to 18:30, where you can get free drinks. There are many places to rest in the lounges on the first and second floors, and they are beautifully decorated, making them great for taking pictures.
The staff are friendly and you can store your luggage and rent umbrellas.
It's a shame that the rooms are inevitably small because they're Japanese, but they're similar in size to other hotels nearby, so there wasn't much of an inconvenience.
However, the interior of the room was decorated in black and wood style, so the overall lighting felt a little dark.
I was assigned a room on the 7th floor, but unfortunately the view was blocked by another building. The mining was very disappointing. That's why I wonder what it would have been like if the lighting had been brighter.
Nearby, the Ichiran Ramen main branch is a 1-minute walk away, and the Don Quijote Nakasu branch is just a crosswalk away.
If you go out the back door of the hotel, Torimabushi is right in front of you.
There is also a 7-Eleven right next to Matsumoto Kiyoshi, so you can see that it has all the necessary infrastructure nearby.
If you like exercise, there are many places you can use, such as Anytime Fitness, Choco Zap, and Gold Gym.
Nakasu Food Market Street is also very accessible, as you can get there in less than 10 minutes by walking along the river.
Tenjin can be reached in 10 minutes by either subway or bus.
However, right in front is an alley where Nakasu entertainment bars are concentrated.
If you are a family with minor children, you need to be a little careful. It's not dangerous.
It is a great place that I would like to visit again due to its transportation, convenience facilities, friendliness of the staff, and cleanliness.
The downside is that the room is narrow and slightly dark.
However, this is not a particularly big drawback as the room size is unique to Japan.
I think the low lighting could be improved a bit.
