Excellent all rounder for food, shopping, transport, everything is walkable, is also the last/first stop for the Kagoshima city view bus, which is very convenient for seeing all the main sites within the city. The only thing we had issues with was the sleeping arrangement - bed hardness was inconsistent, one bed was much harder than the other in our room, and pillow options were not great (the firmer one had beads on one side, not very comfortable, and the softer option was so soft it was like lying on nothing). Overall would still recommend staying here, as the advantages significantly outweigh the disadvantages.
