1/5
Probably the lowest ever.Check in around 9pm.・Shower continues to leak due to gasket deterioration・For some reason, the faucet stops when I put it in the hot water position, so I can only use cold water.・The clock in the room remains stopped.I was worried that if things kept going like this, my futon, loungewear, and glasses would still be dirty, so I suddenly felt uneasy, so I checked out around 3:00 a.m.It was better to sleep in the car.I would like a refund.

Modern and welcoming hotel. Average room if you take a double room with separate beds (always recommended in Japan). Rooms with everything you need, basic Japanese breakfast, with alternatives however. …

The hotel is somewhat far from the center but has bus lines nearby.The staff was nice and attentive.If you use the washing machine, keep in mind that it is easy for it to be busy and the drying is not very powerful.The coffee in the cafeteria could be improved.
