Nice hotel

Property is very very close to the station. Which is handy especially after a long day of walk. Breakfast is very limited and not worth of 1000 yen. We just got few things from family mart opposite to the hotel. Got daily towels changed. Overall nice stay

Nice simple and easy

Good room, clean, good amenities. Only downside was there was 1 lift for the whole hotel so spent lots of time waiting around for it. But the location was great and check in and luggage store was easy.
