City Reset Patterns

Late-night fallback

If dinner, delays, or check-in timing gets messy, shift toward Hondori.

Eat

Card / cash reset

If payment confidence drops, reset around Hiroshima Station where ATM and station services are easier to find.

Rain-day regroup point

If weather turns ugly, regroup around Hiroshima Station before deciding the next move.

Low-stress starter plans

Use one fixed fallback instead of reopening the whole city every time the day slips.

First 3 hours

Land, head for Hiroshima Station, keep the first meal near Hiroshima Station, then decide the next major move after check-in or a station reset.

Rainy-day fallback

If weather turns, regroup around Hiroshima Station, shift to indoor food or station access, then pick one indoor spot page instead of chasing the full list.

Late-night safety move

If dinner or check-in gets messy, bias toward Hondori, solve food and payment first, then simplify the next morning.
