Toyoko Inn JR Wakayama eki Higashi guchi

Room - perfect size for 3 people - quiet (this may be due to the fact that we were on level 13 and on the at the end of the corridor) - clean (except for some stray hair on the bathroom floor when we first entered) - comfortable couch and bed (the bed is firm, which can be good or bad depending on your preference) - ample power sockets in good locations for charging equipments, using the hair dryer and kettle - good view of the city and plenty of natural light - good water pressure in the shower - very secure: the room card is required for the elevator and for entry into the room - enough room cards for everyone - the room is cleaned every 4 days (works for me) but fresh towels are always left at the door - all amenities are available in the lobby for your selection (green and ume tea sachets, face wash and lotion, shaving kit, shower cap etc.) - cold and hot water dispenser, ice machine, toaster and microwave are also available in the lobby Breakfast - free from 6:30-9am, with coffee services until 10am - caters more towards the Eastern palate, the food was delicious, healthy and filling; there is toast, pastries, sandwiches, cereal, yogurt, coffee and apple juice for those who prefer a Western breakfast - the kitchen staff worked efficiently to ensure everything is orderly and food is never out of stock for long - children friendly cutleries are available for the little ones Parking - 800 yen for each day; the total number of days is paid at the start, that way a spot is always reserved for you even if the 'carpark full' sign is out. You just have to state your room number and validate your ticket each time. - while not as spacious as most modern carparks, there is sufficient space to manevour your vehicle. Location - 4 minutes walk from the East exit of Wakayama Station - equal distance to Kintetsu and MIO shopping centre, with food courts in the basement level - plenty of convinience stores and restaurants around the area

The room size is great for solo travellers on a business trip who wants to be near JR Wakayama station. There's a fridge in the room and the water heater and toilet facilities are just right.
