APA Hotel Saga Ekimae Chuo

Overall a good budget hotel for a short stay. There are many parking spots around - check the prices because they can significantly differ. The hotel parking was full but finding an alternative space was easy (and it turned out to be cheaper). Location is a short walk to Saga station. Room was quite small but fortunately we only had a cabin size luggage. Bathtub looks small but it's actually sufficient for a comfortable shower. Beds and pillows are comfortable. I enjoyed the Japanese style buffet breakfast - it was basic but included rice, miso, side dishes, a piece of fish, fruit etc. There were more items that I didn't try, incl. some Western style food such as croissants, toast and jam. I appreciate that allergens were listed for each item, which is quite rare in Japan!

Exception service at every level. The staff are really helpful! I got put in one of the quieter parts of the hotel which was really nice. Had no problems at all. I had a room with a big bathtub which was really nice.

Price, location, and comfortable bed. The hotel accommodated my preference for a quiet room away from the elevator.

My domestic flight was cancelled due to the bad weather. I came across APA which Paolo from Tokyo covered on YouTube and the staff exemplified the same service standard as the Shinjuku branch.

I love how convenient it's located, as it's pretty close to Saga Station
