I decided to book the Dormy Inn because of its previous reviews and proximity to the JR Nagasaki station. However, I was a bit disappointed with my experience.
First, I arrived around 2pm and rather than allow me to check-in and begin exploring Nagasaki, they wanted me to wait until 3pm to check-in or pay a fee if I wanted to check-in earlier. I then proceeded to post up in the lobby (because where else am I going to go with all of my luggage) to take a nap, and after about 20-25 minutes of seeing this, they had me check-in with no fee.
I checked into my room, which was quite small and was there for two nights. My air conditioner was full after I came back and water was all over the floor. Rather than have it fixed, they had me stay in a different room for the second night, which was near my first room (so that I didn’t have to move my belongings). However, when I came back to my original room, the room smelled damp, was very warm (stayed in the heat of summer) and very humid.
Needless to say, I was not impressed with my experience at the hotel. The one positive aspect of it is that it is located near the central part of the city.
