Kobe MerikenPark Oriental Hotel
Room is clean. The issue is with the checking process. The staff did not offer any information about the property. There is a shuttle bus available but the staff has ever given us any information. The staff has no facial expression and seems unhappy in everything.

DaiwaRoynetHotel Kobe-Sannomiya PREMIER
Really good location but room is very small and was a bit dusty. In comparison to other hotels we stayed in japan this was the least clean out of all of them but overall still very clean for a normal (non japanese) standard.
