    Very good

    The hotel was a real gem! The room was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed, including complimentary toothbrushes and a cell phone with free calls and internet. The price was great for the location, with easy access to the metro and popular markets. We especially enjoyed the delicious breakfast with both Japanese and European options.

    The wifi was frustratingly slow, which was a bit of a downside for us as international travelers. Additionally, the regular room rates seemed a bit too high, and we were only able to get a good deal through a special offer. But overall, we would definitely recommend this hotel for its convenient location and excellent amenities.

    The hotel was a great choice for our Christmas getaway. The free-to-use phone with travel apps and local maps was a lifesaver when it came to exploring the city. The location was perfect, within walking distance to local attractions, restaurants, and convenience stores. The complimentary breakfast was a delightful surprise and offered a good mix of continental and traditional cuisine.

    While the room was comfortable and clean, the bed was a bit too hard for our liking. The staff could have been more accommodating when it came to early check-in or explaining any additional fees. we had a great stay and would recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a budget-friendly option in the city.

    Chain hotel with a good level of services in general. Well located and good size rooms considering the "Japanese standard". Good buffet breakfast but with a semi-rigid system to access that sometimes you don't understand (non consecutive number sheets).

    The breakfast ticket included in the price is with individual flyers and all are manually dated and valid only for each date, so it is important to "manage" them per day, instead of a "blanket" checkbook that allows you to just use them without further complications. Very strict rules in the Check In process. . a) Definitely impossible to have the room brought forward before 3 PM... b) They do not provide you with an extra key (magnetic card) even if you explicitly request it. (You always need an extra one when you manage 2 rooms or more and you have to manage 4 adults' times). c) For the key, they have a conventional penalty of 1000 yen for even involuntary loss, it seems shocking for the high price you pay per night. c) Some of the carpets in the rooms on the 4th floor, look old and stained. The carpets on the 7th floor are in good condition.

    Very good located, near JR station and metro. The staff is very friendly at all times. Possibly Hot Spring (SPA) costs a lot, but it is good, very good.

    Great location (on the edge of main shopping/restaurant area and good transport links) and friendly, helpful staff.

    Not a great view.

    Perfect

    Very nice hotel. Good location and generally good value for money.

    I had requested a non-smoking room and was given a smoking room. There was a very strong odour in the room throughout our stay. It was a busy weekend and I understand there was a big tour group that had arrived that weekend and so they were full. I however booked early. As I'm a non-smoker and asthmatic, this is an important factor for me. I would stay at the hotel again but would contact them directly to check if a non-smoking room would be made available to me.
