"Wonderful and clean hotel with old-world charm. The location was convenient to Odori Park, Nijo Market, the tour bus pickup point and it was located in a quiet neighborhood. The only confusion was the pick-up location at the hotel. What we thought was the front of the hotel was actually the side of the hotel so a photo sent by our driver helped."
