Anonymous, Jul 2016
Pros (+) Location is excellant.
Cons (-) The first floor at the hotel entrance, and hallways had an odor. Perhaps the carpet needs to be cleaned or replaced.

Trevor, Nov 2015
Pros (+) Great location, rooms were very clean!
Cons (-) Wifi wasn't great but not uncommon for what we experienced at other Japan hotels. Small rooms, didn't have quite enough space for two suitcases in a 2x twin bed room.
