It's a convenient location, but it's quiet.There is a separate bathroom.I think the size of the room is also good.I've used it several times, but it's a shame that it's becoming less and less clean.The area under the washing machine is full of hair and dust.The air conditioner is terrible.The only toiletries I had were toothbrushes.Plants at the entrance also need pruning.There are some disappointing points, but it is something that can be resolved, so I would like to see it improved.

I will not recommend this property. I had to book this hotel at the last minute. Stayed with kids for 2 nights in room 301Cons:1. The property is listed as 5* in booking.com, which is incorrect. Simple google search shows this as a 3* property. I have informed bookings.com team. This is more like a Airbnb.2. Pictures are misleading. Property is dirty and beds are uncomfortable.3. Bathtub is tiny. A grown person can not sit in that bath tub.4. Everything decent is 20+ min bus ride (note buses are frequent)5. There's a massive gaming setup ... not sure why but it took a lot of useful space5. Kitchenette is dirty, I would not cook food therePros:Checkin process is simple.Bus stops are 3-5 mins walk and buses are frequentThere is a beautiful Shrine next to it

I stayed here for work. The room was clean and stylish, and it was quiet because it was in a residential area. The toilet and bath are also separate. There is also a simple kitchen, so you can bring your own ingredients and make something simple. The only disappointing thing was that the air conditioner was very noisy. There is Seimei Shrine nearby, and I visited it the next morning.

The location was good. I was able to pray right next to the shrine.The facility is unmanned. There is a way to check in in advance.I couldn't do it well and got flustered.There was no hot water in the bath, and I was just using water, so I looked at the instruction manual and finally got hot water.Please set up a system that provides hot water more normally.It was very cold.
