The room had a humming noise. It was not loud, but I could hear it at night. The bathroom was clean, although a little small. The location was good as it was close to the train station. The main restaurant area was not close. The reception and service was good for a commercial hotel

Fine
Average 3 star hotel, a bit run down but quite ok. Overall, reasonable for the price. Only negative was that my room smelt faintly of smoke. Reception staff spoke very little English but were very helpful. I would happily stay again.

Perfect
A very good place to stay. It's true that the hotel is a bit old, but it's in perfect condition, very well maintained, and the room was also considerably larger than usual for Japan. The breakfast was very complete and varied. Very satisfied with my choice.

Our Final night after our trek on the Kumano - Team Ellis
We had a 3 bed room. Smallish, but we expected this. Clean and tidy, reception staff very welcoming. Never had an evening meal but did have the buffet style breakfast in the morning which was fantastic! Western and Japanese style food. The hotel is a 10-15 minute walk from the bus stop we got off from after finishing the trek at the temple and shintu shrine. The train station we took to take us onto Nagoya is a 10-15 minute walk too. Both completely flat. Would recommend. Good wifi!

Great place to stay in Shingu
After 3 nights in the countryside, staying in this hotel was pure luxury. The room, service and food were all wonderful and I will recommend it to others doing the same course. I didn't expect such a nice hotel because of the price. It was a pleasant surprise.

Friendly staff, good location
Good:
- friendly staff
- good location
- bigger room than average in Japan
Less good:
- the English knowledge of the receptionists could have been better
- we were a bit dissatisfied with the breakfast, because you didn't have a lot of choice
- the room was quite expensive, but that was because they increase the price during the Obon-weekend

Clean and safe but stuck in 70s
The Shingu UI Hotel has a huge foyer that suggests former days of glory. However those days are long gone. The huge hotel had a feeling of abandonment and the decor was stuck in the 70s. However it was clean and comfortable and close to the Shingu JR station. I wish we had spent our final night of our Kumano Kodo adventure in Kii-Katsuura.

Pleasant experience
It was a good experience overall, but after staying at all these amazing places during the Kumano trail, and then staying at a hotel at a big town, well, the experience is a bit different. My room kept on having this mechanical noise during the night which made it uncomfortable and, since they didn't speak any English at the front desk, it was impossible for me to ask for help.

Decent price for a downtown hotel
The hotel is very well located and the services are good.
We had to discuss the fact that the room was already paid.
Apart from that, we were very satisfied with the facilities.
