Yes, I tried it last summer.
+:
The harbour views are nice.
Free parking, 5mn to the train station and 5-10mn to the ferry terminal.
Our room was spacious.

-:
A bit dated.
Only one washing machine for the self-service laundry.
Rooms: classic Hokkaido Crowne Plaza fair, equivalent to the other Crowne Plaza I tried in Hokkaido (Kushiro).


We didn't try the breakfast and the restaurant, and finally found no breakfast easily available around us.
The service was pleasant, as far as we used it.

The hotel offer in Wakkanai is rather poor, so there isn't much competition around, except 70's -80's style mediocre places.

We also tried Wakkanai Dormy Inn, and found it had a better value: the breakfast was very nice (the choice of dishes, not the breakfast room, which is average), the included onsen, the self-service laundry, and also nice high floor views.
