“Smile Hotel Shimonoseki strikes me as a practical choice, especially given its location near key attractions and the railway station; I also noted the inclusion of a daily breakfast buffet, adding to the convenience for guests. While some may find the building a bit dated, the rooms seem clean and well-maintained, plus I think the full-body massage service is a particularly nice touch. It seems a reasonable option for those prioritizing accessibility and value.”
