Harbour Inn & Suites 202

For Niigata City, it’s a fairly unusual apartment-style guesthouse, with a good price, layout, and amount of space. The kitchen is fully equipped, and there’s a private parking spot. Just be careful with big bags on the narrow iron stairs to the second floor. We also ran into what seems to be a recurring lack of cleaning in the smaller areas. The kitchen fan filter had a thick buildup of grease and grime, too much for guests to clean themselves. Lint filled the washing machine filter, and it left dark clothes covered in fuzz after washing. Check those spots right after you arrive and tell the manager right away. She’s said to arrange for cleaning staff to come, though you’ll need to wait while they do it.
