Daiwa Roynet Hotel Yamagata-ekimae
Nice new hotel with spacious room and nice bathroom. It is a block from the train station and bus terminal so it is easy to explore the regions such as Zao Onsen and Yamadera. The hotel restaurant is one of the best serving famous local beef and hotel guests have a decent discount. Highly recommended ...

Nature Cottage Akabeko
施設の古さや清潔さにしては、料金が高いと感じた。ゴミ箱の外側が汚れていたり、いくつもの部屋の角に蜘蛛の巣やホコリがあり、壁もシミが多くて汚く感じた。 この値段では、次回も利用したいとは思わない。
