PLUS 9 Station INN Izumisano Japan: Your Dream Izumisano Getaway Awaits!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into PLUS 9 Station INN Izumisano Japan! Get ready for a review that's less "by-the-book" and more "by-the-seat-of-my-pants." We’re talking real talk, folks, the good, the bad, and the "did-I-leave-my-toothbrush-at-that-hotel?" ugly.
First Impressions: The Arrival & Accessibility – (Because, You Know, Getting There is Half the Battle… Mostly.)
Alright, getting to Izumisano. If you're flying into Kansai International Airport (KIX), this is relatively easy peasy. PLUS 9 Station INN? It's practically breathing distance from the station. (See? Already a win!) The airport transfer service is a lifesaver, especially after a long flight. And bless their hearts, they actually have elevators. I mean, hello, 2024! Accessibility: It's a solid YES. They even have facilities for disabled guests, which is more than you can say for some places. The whole vibe? Easy breezy.
Rooms: My Room, My Fortress! (Maybe With Extra Towels)
Okay, the rooms. I’m a sucker for a good room. And at PLUS 9, they've got the essentials: air conditioning, a decent desk to pretend you're working at, and oh, FREE WI-FI in every room! Don't even get me STARTED on the hellscape of paid Wi-Fi. I'm talking about it. I've seen it. I've wanted to throw my laptop down the stairs. So, yes, score one for PLUS 9! The blackout curtains are a godsend when you're battling jet lag. My bed? It was comfy enough. Not the cloud-nine experience, but definitely not the cardboard-box-in-a-ditch situation. Cleanliness? Seemed good! I snooped a bit (don't judge), and the rooms are definitely not musty. They do rooms sanitization between stays so that is an amazing point for the safety. Oh, and the in-room safe box gave a feeling of security. You could, if you wanted, lose your mind inside.
A Quick Word on the "Available in All Rooms" Stuff:
- Bathrobes: Yes, thank the heavens above.
- Slippers: Essential.
- Hair Dryer: Check. (Because I hate hotel hair dryers.)
- Complimentary tea/coffee maker: Essential after that long flight.
- Extra long bed: Okay, maybe not extra long, but long enough.
- Free bottled water: Important. Stay hydrated, people.
- TV with Satellite/Cable: Good for the nights when you have no plans.
- Mirror: Yep. Good for checking if you look like a zombie.
- Non-smoking: Woohoo!!
Dining: Food, Glorious Food (Or, the Quest for a Decent Coffee)
Alright, let's talk food. Because, honestly, a good hotel can live or die based on its dining options. PLUS 9 has a bunch of options.
- Asian Breakfast, Western Breakfast, Breakfast Buffets: Check. You get your fill. They also offer breakfast in room and breakfast takeaway service. They got plenty of options.
- Restaurants: They have a few. Asian cuisine and international cuisine.
- Coffee Shop: I’m a caffeine addict, and the coffee shop was a lifesaver.
- Poolside Bar: Haven’t been there, but looks like a treat.
- Room Service (24 hours): Jackpot! Perfect for those late-night cravings.
- Snack Bar: Handy for a quick bite.
My biggest gripe? The coffee was…meh. Okay, it wasn't terrible, but a little more oomph would have been welcome. But hey, it’s a hotel, not a barista competition. I’d give a good score for the breakfast, even if I just had a salad.
Things to Do: Relaxation & Recreation (Or, How I Tried to Relax and Failed… Gloriously)
Okay, here's where PLUS 9 really shines. They've got a pool with a view, which is pure Instagram gold. A sauna, spa, and steam room – oh, yes! Foot baths, Massage, and even a fitness center! I, of course, attempted to use the gym. Attempted. Let's just say the treadmill and I had a brief, awkward encounter. I’m all for relaxation, I really try, but I'm more a "lie-on-the-terrace-and-eat-pocky" kind of relaxer.
Let's talk about the steam room/sauna. I love a sauna. They had two (!!). Let me tell you, there’s something about sweating out all your baggage (physical and emotional) in a steamy room. I spent a good hour in there, contemplating life and the proper way to hold your towel. Pure bliss.
Cleanliness & Safety: Feeling Safe & Sound (Because The World Is Kinda Scary)
Okay, let's get serious for a second. Traveling in this day and age? Safety is paramount. PLUS 9 gets it. They've got CCTV in common areas and outside too, 24-hour security, smoke alarms, and a front desk open 24/7. They also have anti-viral cleaning products, daily disinfection in common areas, and rooms sanitized between stays. They take a lot of precautions. This isn't some fly-by-night operation.
Services & Conveniences: the Little Things That Make a Big Difference
Okay, the extras. Those little things that elevate a hotel from "meh" to "wow."
- Currency Exchange: Essential.
- Concierge: Helpful for things you didn't know you needed.
- Luggage Storage: Useful if you're a chronic over-packer (ahem).
- Laundry service/ Dry cleaning/ Ironing service: Thank the sweet heavens – I always end up needing them.
- Convenience store: If you forget something.
For the Kids: Family-Friendly? (Maybe Pack Those Earplugs)
I don't have kids, but I saw plenty. PLUS 9 definitely caters to families. They have babysitting services and kid's meals. Family/Child-friendly score? High!.
Getting Around: Location, Location, Location (And the Free Car Park… Yes!)
Another win for PLUS 9. Free car park! Always a plus for those who rent a car. They also offer airport transfer, taxis, and bicycle parking. And being so close to the station, getting around is stupidly easy.

Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're about to embark on a chaotic, slightly-unhinged, and undeniably honest travel itinerary for the PLUS 9 Station INN in Izumisano, Japan. Forget perfect Instagram reels, this is going to be a straight-up train wreck of feelings, ramen cravings, and probably a few lost luggage incidents.
PLUS 9 Station INN: My Izumisano Odyssey (or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Airport Proximity)
Day 1: Arrival (or, The Day My Stomach Decided to Stage a Protest)
14:00 JST: Touchdown at Kansai International Airport (KIX). Oh god, the humidity. It's like walking into a giant, warm, wet hug…from a swamp. My luggage might have decided to take a detour to somewhere vaguely Scandinavian. Fantastic.
14:30: Navigating KIX. Picture me, flailing arms, a desperate plea echoing through the vast airport halls, "Where DID my toothbrush go?!" Okay, deep breaths. Find the airport shuttle to the Inn. Apparently, It's a five-minute ride. Phew.
15:00: Check-in at PLUS 9 Station INN. The staff? Adorable. They're probably used to sleep-deprived, jet-lagged wrecks like myself. Thank goodness for my booking. They have a little English, I have a little Japanese (mostly limited to "Konnichiwa" and "Sumimasen" which I use way too liberally). I'm assigned to the room with the fantastic view of… well, the airport. Hey! I'm staying in an Inns of the world.
15:30: Room Reconnaissance & Minor Panic. Okay, the room is small, efficient, and perfectly clean. Excellent. But the emptiness of my luggage situation dawns. What in the world am I supposed to make do with?! I'm going to be forced to wear the same crumpled T-shirt for a week, aren’t I?
16:00: Food! The most important mission. My stomach's currently staging a full-blown riot. I stumble out, desperate for sustinance. Google Maps informs me of a nearby Conbini (convenience store). This is the first place I can grab food, which I do, getting a weird box of rice with chicken (which I barely like).
17:00: Recovery & Rambling. Back in the room, I decide that, despite the missing luggage, I will enjoy this. Maybe a little trip to the nearest shop is in order. I lay down. Think. Do I like the air-con? Yes, I think I do. Did I bring some snacks? Yes. The day is getting better.
18:00: Walking around the area of the Inn. I was excited since I was coming, but the local scene is not as what I expected.
19:00: Evening. The Ramen Quest Begins. I'm convinced the key to surviving any Japanese adventure is ramen. I had heard there were places with superb ramen near the station. After that, hopefully sleep.
Day 2: Embracing the Airport Vibes & Ramen Redemption
08:00: Waking up. I slept! Slept well, even. This is what I need to do for Japan. I am ready to go out and explore.
08:30: Breakfast at the Inn. They have a complimentary breakfast! A small one, but it's free and edible. Praise be!
09:30: Airport Observation (or, Why People-Watching at KIX is strangely fascinating). Okay, I know I'm at the airport, but…it's actually kind of cool. Plus, the sheer volume of luggage makes me feel slightly less alone in my "missing bag" saga. So I decided to just go and observe people checking in and out.
11:00: Exploring the Local Area (Ishizukuri neighborhood). Okay, a little more ambitious. Time to find some sights. I wander around the local area and quickly realize that this part of town isn't some tourist hub. It's all very local, very real, and strangely comforting. I ended up just observing and drinking a delicious drink I grabbed from a vending machine.
13:00: Lunch. Found a small, unassuming restaurant. It's clearly a local spot. The food is amazing. I ate some Udon for around 680 yen, it was fantastic!
14:00: Relaxation Time. I decided to get back to my room to relax. I watched the airport for some time before eventually taking a nap.
18:00: Ramen Redemption! Tonight, no more messing around. I am determined to find some seriously good ramen. After some intense research (aka, scrolling through Google Maps reviews), I found one place. Okay, this is where things get intense. The broth was complex, the noodles were perfectly chewy, the chashu pork was melt-in-your-mouth heaven. Forget the missing luggage, forget the jet lag, this ramen… This ramen was worth the trip. It was perfection. I even slurped!
20:00: The after-ramen glow. I'm walking back, still full of the great Ramen. I am glad I was able to eat it!
Day 3-4: Day Trips and Departures
- Daily: Day trips. Take the train. There are many places to explore.
- Day 5: Departure. Check out. Airport. Plane. (Hopefully, my luggage will be there this time).
Final Thoughts (or, The Aftermath of an Izumisano Expedition)
The PLUS 9 Station INN? It's not a luxury resort. It's not going to blow your mind with fancy amenities. But it's clean, convenient, and the staff are lovely. The location? Well, airport proximity has its advantages (especially if you're prone to lost luggage).
Would I go back? Absolutely. I mean, I'd probably pack extra socks next time. And maybe learn more than three Japanese phrases. But the ramen? The ramen alone makes it worth it. And the memories? They're more chaotic, messy, and utterly real than any perfectly curated Instagram feed could ever capture. So yeah, Izumisano, you win. You really won. And I'm already plotting my return.
