Staying at this hotel made riding the train easy, and there were many options nearby for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The room was clean and I had all I needed. I thought that the design of the bathroom faucet was strange. I couldn't leave it on, except at full strength. I found that inconvenient.

I stayed here for three nights last week and it was great - quiet, excellent location and amenities. I returned for one night after the weekend and I could hear everything from the room next to me - I could hear her tv and her phone conversations until past 1 am. Not sure why it wasn't a problem last week. Maybe it was that particular room?

Staff were helpful and approachable. Good amenities and clean room. Room was extremely small for two people stay but that was to be expected. Walls were thin and we could hear people staying in the next room to us which wasn’t pleasant. Great location.

Just next to the JR station

The room size is tight like most hotels in Japan. A slightly dated building but hotel is maintained satisfactorily. Our non-smoking room has an odd odour; we think it is from the bathroom. So we called Front Desk to smell for themselves. The manager offered to change our room. The new room is smaller than our allotted room. So we opted to stay in the allotted room. We switched on the air purifier to full blast and placed it outside the bathroom. The air freshener spray also "covered up" the odour. Few types of pillows. Bed is soft. Staff is friendly and efficient.
