Tabist the Green was great in terms of location. Other than that, the property was old and worn; the sentó was across the street (so not easily accessible); check in was confusing (the self check in screen indicated we would get two keys, but we only received one); the bathroom was tiny, even by Japanese standards, and they entire property smelled old and smoky.

The room is very small especially the bath room, hard to move around. The wall is thin, can hear next room talking louder. But the location is really good. Walkable distance to otaru station, Otaru canal. Front staff is nice too. Help us to make a phone call to my next hotel in Niseko.

There is good customer service, but overall, the stay was average.
There are multiple buildings for different rooms and it wasn't clear to many of the guests which building was theirs or how to even enter the hotel.
The hotel was alright, but there was nothing outstanding about it. There is a soup curry restaurant on the first floor of one of the hotel buildings, but no free breakfast/dinner.
The bathrooms are really small and the pillows are really lumpy. The fridge wasn't on and you had to turn it on yourself. There was no sign that even said you had to turn it on.

Close to the train station. The price that we paid during the winter snow festival season is quite cheap. However, there is a little unpleasant smell in the toilet, and the hotel has changed name to “The Green” - so it can be misleading to find the “Smile Hotel”

It is near to the otaru canal and otaru harbour. You may also walk to the music box musuem. It took only 20 minutes. For me, it is very convenient.
