What people say
Very nice location. 5 min. from train station. 3 min. from shopping area. Next to park and historical site.
Location is superb.
Friendly staff and location.
No breakfast.
Expensive for what it was. For Japanese standards not as sparkling clean as you may expect and our room smelled of smoke although we asked for a no smoking room.
