I enjoyed my stay here, this place is very close to Nishiki market, Ichiran ramen, and the Maikoya tea ceremony. It is very accessible to buses and trains. The hotel offers complementary ice cream. My only complaint was that the refrigerator was not really cold at all, and I was surprised that the hotel does not use a luggage forwarding service.

Cold and efficient. No way to change the air of the bath room, no way to open the curtain. But curtain dark ensuring darkness even during the day. Relatively silent.

The location of the hotel is perfect, but the rooms are very small. The hotel is very clean, and the staff is very friendly. However, it does not serve breakfast. Considering the amount of money you pay, it is very good.

The location was great, easy access to the train station and popular areas. Room was mostly clean and compact. Staff were friendly on check in but when we asked to leave our luggage for a couple hours before check in they just let you tag it yourself and leave it in the lobby not secured.. we were worried all day about our luggage even though we know Japan is known for being safe. There seemed to be not a lot of supervision or presence at the front desk unless you rang the bell. Also amenities that were not explained on check in we discovered ourselves based off our previous hotel.

As a hotel located in a bustling area of a famous tourist city, it's hard to understand why the front desk staff don't speak English. They solely rely on iPad translation for communication, and there's a lack of smiles with a cold and indifferent attitude. They don't offer any assistance . I won’t recommend this hotel
