Hotel MyStays Otemae

The front desk clerks

Stained carpet, brash overhead lighting, tiny bathroom (like a ship), no in-room instructions for AC (received on request), vacuum cleaner took up space in closet. Room would have been 80% better w a side table and lamp. Front desk clerks all very friendly and helpful. Mantra "you get what you pay for" applies here (I believed the incorrectly high reviews). Would not recommend.

The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful.

The photos make this hotel look much nicer than it is. The hallways are open air so were hot and humid during our August stay. They also looked more like a prison than a hotel. The rooms had a strange smell and were smaller than they appeared in the website photos. They did have a small kitchen area but that wasn’t needed by us during this trip. The bathroom was small and cramped like a cruise ship or RV bathroom. The shower turned on with the sink faucets and we barely had warm water with just the hot turned on full blast. Luckily we didn’t do anything but sleep in our rooms and we were only there 2 nights.
