Very good hotel.
We had an apartment for 4 people which was incredible: large, well equiped, calm, comfortable...
Simply, this place was the best of our stay in Japan !! And last but not least, there is plenty of space and capacity to store your luggage and clothes.

The staff were extremely kind and helpful, assisting us with calling restaurants to make advance reservations and arranging taxi bookings. The hotel rooms were very clean, and by Japanese standards, the room size was quite spacious. The location is also very convenient—quiet yet close to the action. Highly recommended!

The hotel offers a room with 4 beds which is the main reason why I chose to stay. Cleanliness and hotel staff are good. Amenities nothing to shout about. Location wise, I found it quite far from the places we planned to go. Me and family spent 30mins walking back to hotel everyday.

Apartment room is ver roomy for the four of us. Love the double toilets, double vanity and kitchenette. Hotel is 20 to 40 minute bus ride to all major attractions or a taxi ride away. Laundry room is useful as well. There are restaurants and convenience stores within 10 minute walk.
Beautiful hotel. Wonderful staff. Big room. Good location. Would happily return to.
