Wisdom Minoshima Inn

There was a strange smell from the bedding, and it had hairs of different lengths on it. It didn't seem to have been washed.

Getting a suitcase up the spiral stairs is a hassle since they're narrow enough for only one person at a time. The area itself is quiet and pleasant, though, with plenty of shops close by, so getting what you need isn't a problem.

The outside of the building looks old, while indoors it feels stylish and even has that new-building smell. The appliances are very modern, and I was impressed by how powerful the hair dryer and vacuum were. But there's a serious safety issue on the steep outdoor spiral staircase to the room: a panel on the side has come off, leaving a gap large enough for a small child to fall through. Someone could get badly hurt.

The mattress had quite a spring to it, and my back felt a little sore when I got up. It was a shame the place was a bit far away, but the four of us took a taxi, so it worked out fine.
