Was really good, close to the Shinkansen train station. Nice and warm breakfast. Big size public bathroom. The room was small as usual for Japanese business hotels but overall my experience was excellent.

This hotel has a public bath but men and women time limited. Women is earlier and shorter time, I understand they are trying to accommodate for women as much as possible. It’s really convenient location. 3 min walk from station and there is a convenience store in 1-2 minutes walk.
