Dormy Inn Express Matsue

Dormy Inn We were looking forward to our breakfast, but it was disappointing because it was so low in quantity. We knew there weren't any public baths, so instead we could enjoy the baths at our sister inn, which is a 10-minute walk away, so that was a good point.

I arrived early and wait in the rouge area. The e front stuff was really kindly realized it and let me know it’s time to check in when the room is ready. It was a pity that this dormyinn has no hot spring. And sad that they didn’t give me instruction that they are providing free ticket for the hot spring near by. So I just used the shower room. It is funny that they also have a little tv in the bath room that you could watching tv when you have a bath at room.

My third time staying here - April 2019, May 2023 and November 2024 - and I liked it for the same reasons. The rooms are very practical. The bathroom is a condensed size but with a nice deep bath which has a seat in it, and a mini tv screen. No problems in getting an extra towel so I could wash my hair. No little yellow duck this time but they're available to borrow from the reception area - perhaps they had too many thefts. The bedroom (twin)/living room has pretty good space, a large wheeled suitcase could be fitted in as well as smaller luggage. There's a nice long desk with a portable lamp, very ample shelving, good hanging space and shoe room. Five power sockets conveniently placed, as well as the ones at floor level. Individual, adjustable air conditioning. Good wifi. And! A Pioneer amp!! So much appreciated....and relatively rare in Japanese hotels. If the Dormy can provide one, why not some of the higher end places where I've stayed?? It's such a bonus. The view is ordinary, but my room is at the end of a corridor so it's quiet. The only glasses are the bathroom beakers. There's powdered green tea and an electric jug. No safe. Dormy Inns have an onsen and various freebies, including late evening ramen, a sweet snack in the fridge, some toiletries, a bottle of water. Breakfasts are good value. This one is near the JR station, lots of shops and eateries, the lake and art gallery. You can walk across one of several bridges to reach the castle and samurai district. I'd stay again...and I hope I will!
