Wonderful Stay Across from Nijo Station!

spacious roomcomfortable bedmodern bathroomlaundry room
The hotel room was quite spacious. The bed was large and comfortable, a pure delight after long days exploring. I found the bathroom very modern and well-kept. I loved the smart TV and the convenience of the laundry room, a lifesaver.
The dark decor in the hotel made the interior feel a bit gloomy though it added a touch of elegance.

Breakfasts were fine, they always had a good variety. I appreciate the hotel location across from Nijo station.
I found the room not very clean. The washing machine was almost impossible for me to use. It was always busy . This made laundry quite inconvenient for me.
