    The hotel offered a great location that was central to all of the popular tourist attractions in the area. We were able to easily explore the city and shops located nearby. The staff was also very helpful with providing bedding and towels during our stay. Another thing we enjoyed was the close proximity to local restaurants, which offered a variety of culinary options to choose from.

    The hotel lacked a certain level of comfort that we were hoping to find during our romantic escape. The amenities were a bit lacking and we were hoping for a more intimate atmosphere. Additionally, the noise level in the area was a bit too high which made it difficult to fully relax during our stay. the hotel was practical but not necessarily a top choice for a romantic getaway.

    Spending my Christmas holiday at this hotel was truly memorable. The two key aspects that made this experience enjoyable were the location and the staff. The hotel is situated in a prime location which ensured that I had access to all the nearby attractions with ease. the staff were very polite and welcoming which made me feel at home. Lastly, I was impressed by the free Wi-Fi access that the hotel offered, which enabled me to stay connected to my loved ones during the holiday season.

    While my stay at the hotel was excellent, there were a few areas where they could improve. the hotel did not have a gym or a swimming pool which would have been a great way to spend my time.

    This hostel had excellent facilities and a perfect location. The dorm-style room was clean, cozy, and comfortable. I loved the capsule-style bed that provided ample privacy. Furthermore, the large shower and changing room with a hair dryer was impressive. Besides, I appreciated the well-thought-out hostel amenities, such as the paper cups, chopsticks, kettle in the common area, and hand towels in the washrooms. To top it off, the hostel's location was conveniently close to the public transportation and all the city's attractions, stores, and restaurants.

    Can't think of anything. This hotel was perfect for me and the stay could not have been better.

    This hostel is conveniently located near the Torichosuji stop, making it easy to explore the city by bus, and it's a short walk from the castle and other attractions. the bed capsules are comfortable and offer privacy, and the showers have shampoo and body soap. There's also laundry service, a fridge, a microwave, and a kettle available to use.

    The hostel doesn't have a proper kitchen for cooking, which may be inconvenient for some guests.

    Convenient location, friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms, easy access to main attractions, nearby stores and restaurants.

    Not one thing.
