Highly recommend this hotel chain. English speaking staff, which made it easy for us to communicate. Kabin Koji doesn’t have laundry in the hotel but there is a laundromat down the street 30 seconds away. Situation in a quiet neighbourhood right down from the Main Street. Would highly recommend the Kabin chain.
