Enjoyed our stay! Very friendly staff and breakfast buffet was excellent! Location was very convenient with train stations and shopping areas nearby. The only drawback was the shower. Water leaked from shower to outside of shower area where adjacent toilet was located. Needed to put a towel after every shower so water did not flow to the toilet area.

This is a place is a gem. The breakfast os too expensive usD$75.00 for 2 adults and one child, and it had not many variety . I also learned with this hotel that Japanese dont have balance, meaning or is white or black. We arrived at the hotel 30 minutes before the check in, and I told them to start the process of check in and we will wait until 3, but at least we can start the process and they were saying “no check in is at 3” I mean that talks A LOT ABOUT SERVICE! Anyways, I love the hotel, the beds , sheets , towels, clean and neat, and the surrounding everything is closed by

I was clearly indicating on the reservation, 2 adults and 2 kids. If the hotel room is not big enough, it should not allow us to book for 4 people. The beds were way too small for four people. The staff asked us to upgrade or get another room. I don’t mind the hotel doesn’t have big rooms, but it should let us know before we arrive , so we can change hotels.
