Tateyama, Chiba Prefecture hotel rooms at the Independent

"Great location near train stop and newest shopping mall. Easy to walk and find great food. Did make it to Doubuti Street easily."

"Really good hotel catering to Westerners. Just beware that the street below is very busy and loud, especially on the weekends. It's a big "party" street."

"Expect a small budget room; the original concept seems to have been a room for a traveling salary man- small, quiet, no frills. Be aware that the smoking rooms do indeed smell of smoke/ I know that seems obvious, but some rooms are better than others. Ask at the front desk for their room recommendations. "

"Food has been greatly upgraded (as well as the price)."

"The hotel was very nice and clean. The room was very suitable. No complaints with this stay!"

"Very clean and helpful. We had a great view from our room. "

"good"

"部屋からの景色は素晴らしい。ただ、この時期は暖房しか使えず、外の気温が17度前後でも日差しが入ると室温はかなり高くなり、エアコンが使えないのはかなり厳しい。私達は窓を開け、部屋のドアまで開けたがそれでも部屋の中は暑くて、そこがかなり残念。"

"Great stay! Only down side rooms bit out dated and need some basic maintenance."
