The bathroom was a little small and the bed was too hard for our liking.

Very good value for the money. The location was great if you don't have a car. It was close to the bus and ferry terminal and short walk to the more happening area of the town. The staff was very friendly. Free use of the laundry machines was a great bonus. The hotel is old and simple, but cozy and clean. We will most likely chose Patina again if we'll ever go back to the wonderful Ishigaki.

Only thing I can think of is offer late check out or showers for people who have checked out already but that is just a wish from a spoiled traveler 😊

Location good, about 10 min walk from Ferry’s and Restaurants. Family Mart just around the corner. They offer many free drinks in the lounge: Sake (afternoons), sparkling water, tea… Room somewhat larger than for instance APAhotels! And….USBcharger next to your bed. Also, enough poweroutlets. Free luggage storage before and after check out and help will calling a taxi <3. Sweet staff! Arigato Goizamasu! Tip: 1) avoid the buses as most as you can! Free bikes are awesome! Maesato beach is about 25 min by bike (belongs to a hotel but day guests are welcome, just follow the signs on the property). Tip 2) Put your laundry in the machine when you go for breakfast, in the afternoon the machines are usually occupied. Tip 3) Taxi to airport is about 3500 yen Tip 4) Definitely take the ferry to Taketomi and rent a bike there Tip 5) if you go to Kabira Bay and use Google Maps: dont put in 'Kabira Bay' as your destination because you will end up in the middle of nowhere. Use 'Kabira Observation Point' or 'Kabira Park'. The last one is also the name of the busstop.

Very nice and comfortable hotel, rooms are spacious and clean, well equipped. Location is great, few min walk to the ferry terminal and the city center, with many restaurants nearby. Good breakfast and friendly staff. They also implemented several eco-friendly measures which I much appreciated.

Nothing really, although breakfast was a bit basic but all good.

Great value and very chilled. Nice quiet location just out of the centre of town. Nothing fancy but does the job.

Pillows are a little small and too soft for my taste. I prefer one big solid pillow over two small ones.

Tasty breakfast, both sauer and sweet. Free washing machines, and environmental commitment: you can chose not to get all your towels and sheet exchanged and get cool gifts! Mini bar service is also great value added.

Our bed was very small for a double. It was indicated in the description but still much smaller than expected. On the plus side, it was possible to get another bed in the very same room (although not very spacious).

A little outside of the center but still easy to reach the main junction, shopping road and ferry terminal. Very good were also the very inexpensive laundromats/dryers and the free bar which is currently used to determine what kind of bar they want to set up in future.

The bed wasn't too comfortable to sleep on.

The breakfast was great! The staff was really kind and gave me some recommendations of places to visit for lunch. Close proximity to bus and ferry terminals.

Very conveniently located, only 10 mins walk from the Bus Terminal or Ferry terminal at the Port. Buffet breakfast each morning was exceptional. The staff were so helpful. I came back with wet shoes when it rained all day, and they offered me a little device which helped dry my shoes. They actively encourage using less water & electricity which is good for the environment. You can earn points & use the points for lovely little items at reception.

Cleaning was not thoroughly done on the second morning, which could've been improved.

Cozy hotel with a lot of interesting effort to engage its guests: you can fill out the questionnaire about local knowledge and/or to tick items which don't need to be changed in your room, to win points for exchanging small souvenirs at the front desk. Free herbal tea (a good range of selections), coffee and even aroma oil burner sets available for free rental. I didn't rent the bicycles but they seem to be available too. Breakfast is basic but enough to kick start the day. I also like how my room has a balcony where I can wash and dry my swimsuit.

The double bed is a little too small for two persons

Friendly and helpful staff, clean and large rooms.Recommended

Stayed in August 2023

The bed wasn't the most comfortable (small, with hard single pillows) and the rooms could maybe be modernised a little.

Well located, cute hotel with spacious rooms and friendly staff. A good value option especially if you want something quieter and more relaxed than the larger resorts on the island. Breakfast is nice and the free tea and coffee in reception is a useful feature.

A very friendly welcome from all the staff and some wonderful “little extras” such as free coffee & tea & pajamas”. The terrace was great for sitting out to have breakfast.

I loved everything about our stay.

We rented the bicycles - included in our stay. Excellent for traveling around. The staff was super helpful in sorting any questions we had and helped us schedule a taxi back to the airport. The breakfast was delicious and they worked hard to accommodate my cousin's allergy to gluten. The rooms were spacious and perfect for a stay filled with water sports. The laundry machines were very convenient.

Sweet gem of a hotel that adds special touches that we so appreciated! Our best hotel in Japan! Thank you!

the beds are too narrow. a small double is very small indeed

The property had everything we needed, and things we didn’t even know we did need. lots of lovely little touches and the staff were very helpful. Breakfast was exceptional!

The hotel is a bit old and rooms are a bit small.

The staff was very firiendly. Breakfast was great, and really good location, closed to the port for ferries going to Taketomi or Iriomote island and very closed to down town. A FamilyMart is just around the corner.
