Futaoi, Shimonoseki hotel rooms at the Independent

"."

"A friend came to pick us up and drop us off so transportation was not a problem. Not crowded and thankfully not too many tourists. It looked like more working people stayed there."

"Everything is perfect. The location of the hotel is also very close to the station and there is a convenience store nearby. The bus stop is also close, so it's good to go to Karato Market or Akama Shrine. Yume Tower can be reached in 5 minutes on foot. There is a hot spring inside the hotel, so you can enjoy the hot spring freely. Free ramen is served in the evening and many other services are provided for free. It is easy to get to Kokura by subway, and I think it is the best hotel to travel throughout Kitakyushu. I highly recommend this hotel."

"I would give 6 stars if I could. The hotel room and lobby areas are spotless. Staff are also very helpful and attentive. Free breakfast was tasty and wonderful. You get to store your luggage for free for the day of check in and check out so you could go sightsee carefree. Amenities include PJs, coffee, tea, toiletries, etc. Overall very very satisfied with our stay. We also got a water view room so that was a bonus. "

"Some stains on the floors, but other than that wonderful experience! "

"All you can eat Curry is awesome till you get sick of it. :)"

"Huge rooms with beautiful views and an onsite Japanese garden super close to the monorail station connecting to the JR Kokura train station and other destinations. The hotel was a bit dated but clean. The retro feel of the rooms may be a selling point to those who like that however. "

"Very convenient hotel at Mojiko.. hotel is old but well maintain. Parking area was not indoor. The day check out was raining a little bit inconvenient. However the man helping parking outside the hotel was very good, every time we park in he ran to us and showed us where to park, the weather was cold with strong wind, appreciate his hard work! "
