“Smile Smart Inn Hakata is a little removed from Hakata's core, true, but the nearby Family Mart and MaxValue supermarket make stocking up on essentials a breeze, particularly convenient for families. For a fuss-free stay with easy access to provisions, it hits the spot; ultimately, practical and well-placed for those happy to use local transport.”
