The Hotel JAL City Miyazaki is located just on the edge of its central business area. its about a 10 to 15 minutes walk from the closest train station. It is quite close to restaurants and shopping. There is also a 24-hour supermarket very close by. The room size is a bit better than the standard Japanese hotel room. The hotel is about 15 years old (they are celebrating their 15th anniversary). The room design, decoration are bit aged. There is no safe in the room. The hotel also do not provide complimentary bottle water. I am not sure whether this is a common practice for hotels in Miyazaki or just this hotel.
Service was quite good and the front desk really tries hard to please the customer. Unfortunately, the English competency of the front desk staff (or all staff for that matter) are quite poor.
We have breakfast included in our room rate. The breakfast was OK with fairly limited selection of western food. There is also a Japanese section available too. The service was a bit passive as we have to ask for coffee refill each time.
Overall, its not a bad hotel. May be our expectation is a bit high when compared with service levels of hotels in places as Tokyo.
