Staff was great! Also having the lounge and free snacks was nice. The room temperature was difficult to adjust given the small size of the room - the room ended up being really hot most of the time.

Only negative was the room was too small, however, the shower was amazing! Separate toilet worked out well and the bidet was the best of our trip. Staff was very helpful and friendly. 7-11 around the corner. A few restaurants close by as well. Subway was very close by. A Room and facilities were clean. Beverages and baked good came in handy, although they were the same everyday. If the rooms weren’t so small, we’d stay there again.

I loved this small hotel! It was clean and conveniently located. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The pastries and drinks were certainly appreciated after getting back to the hotel from a long day of exploring. The room was small but had enough room to lay out our 2 carry-on suitcases. The bath area was fabulous. Highly recommended!!!

This hotel is GREAT. It was by far the best hotel of our entire Japan trip, and we stayed at other very good hotels. The room is spacious, clean, and has a fantastic shower. All amenities you could need are available. The lobby area was so nice to hang out in during times that we needed to rest our feet from the 30,000 step days.
