The property is very modern and operated by foreigners (not Japanese owned). Catered towards more western travelers. Property was clean, staff helpful, and comfortable. Room is a bit tight but nothing to really complain about as most hotels have small rooms in Japan. We loved our stay.

Gem of a hotel!

We had an amazing stay! The hotel is tucked into a quiet street in a very interesting neighborhood, with many lovely restaurants just a few minutes away. The main shopping area is also easily walkable. The room is super comfortable. Check-in was easy and the front desk staff (fluent in English) was very helpful. So, great location and great condition. We loved our experience and will choose to stay here again for our return trips!
