Everything was great however they tell you after you arrive and have already paid that there is state tax fees…… that should be included in the beginning we got there and there was more we had to pay for. It was only like 30 but still

We had a wonderful stay during our Japan trip and truly appreciated. The location is excellent—set in a quiet area yet within walking distance of nearby landmarks, which made exploring very easy. It’s a great balance between convenience and relaxation. The staff were incredibly friendly and thoughtful, and there were no issues communicating in English. They even contacted us in advance to confirm our estimated arrival time, allowing us to drop off our luggage before check-in, which was very helpful. The room was very well maintained and beautifully designed. We especially loved how it blends traditional Japanese elements with modern style. The heated floor in bathroom and living area were a standout feature and made the stay exceptionally comfortable. Overall, a warm, comfortable, and thoughtfully run hotel—highly recommended for anyone visiting Japan.

I really enjoyed the spacious accommodations for our family. The Nescafé coffee station in the room was fantastic. The complimentary coffee and beverages in the lobby was wonderful after a long day of walking.
