Touch of Old Japan

An older hotel but the accommodations were fine. Staff was friendly and the room had two levels - the upstairs had western style beds. Breakfast was good.

The room is spacious and we love the Japanese style so much. So clean! However it would be perfect if the windows have blackout curtains or sample curtains. The Japanese paper curtains really can’t block the sunlight during morning. We woke up early by the sunlight.

古いながらも清潔さは保たれている。チェックイン時のフロントの説明も丁寧。フロントに隣接したウェルカムドリンクのコーナーも種類豊富で良かったが、部屋に持ち帰り可能なコーヒーは、紙コップの方が良かったかも。 お隣のお部屋の生活音が結構聞こえたので、TVの音量や入浴の音などに若干、気を使いました。
