First thing off: they're not a regular hotel. Neither a hostel. Actually, there is a japanese definition of these small, family-operated kind of hotel: minshuku.

Morimoto is a minshuku: a cozy, no-frills, efficient (albeit bare) kitchenette-renting style of hotel.

Operated by the lovely Morimoto couple, they receive their guest with a no-nonsense japanese efficiency. The room itself might seem a way too bare at first, but you'll grow to like it. It's clean and it's functional

We stayed in one of the upper rooms (room 11), equipped with a refrigerator, an a/c, kitchen sink and a small gas stove. Our room got a double bed, a single bed (with a slide out extra single bed), a small (and very clean) bathroom

And that's it

Lit with a single ceiling lamp/fan, we mostly missed shelf space to place our stuff on. There's a makeshift shelf right at the entryway but that was barely enough for 2 adults and a kid. I wonder how limited it might be if there were 4 adults roaming around the same space

During our full week stay there the room was cozy, didn't get excessive hot. So we didn't turn the a/c on. Should you cook inside the room, you probably will have to open up the single kitchen window and the balcony slide door - and spin on the ceiling fan thing

The breakfast (as any minshuku) is ordered on a daily basis: from 8:30 to 10:00 you go to an intercom by the corridor and tell your room number. After a few minutes a maid delivers your breakfast in a tray right at your door. Pretty neat and charming. As always, there's enough fruits, bread and yoghurt to take away in your daily beach trips

A few points could get better, though:
• everything (the whole hotel) is lit by those dreadful, cold, harsh and stingy white LED lamps. Yellow-toned would be MUCH better and easier on the eyes, specially inside the room
• the room could use more shelves, there is a pretty serious lack of storing space - either on 3 shelves behind the door, or laid on the floor
• a bedside lamp (with a dim yellow light) would be a GREAT addition. I'm talking about during those mid-night bathroom trips
• a clear and no-exception rule of "guest cannot bring their own loud stupid music to the pool side" would be greatly appreciated, since just a few of us have a common sense to avoid annoying fellow guests with our own "great music taste"

But none of these points are deal-breakers. At all. Morimoto is aimed at family guests, and is already part of our nice-places-to-stay portfolio

I can highly recommend them to friends, relatives and fellow Trip Advisor users

Actually, we're planning our return there in a couple of months : )

Cozy, homey and close to the beach

Realy good value, was very clean, nice fresh breakfast at the time we prefered, delivered to our room.  Close to the beach and other shops for walking. We had a kitchenette with fridge, gas cook top and was perfect for our needs as we could make our own dinner if we chose to.  The staff was very friendly and treated us well.
