Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was nice and quiet and I loved the area around it as I could walk to almost everywhere. I only wished they were a little more flexible with check-in times as they made everyone wait 3pm for check-in saying that no rooms were ready before. I think having a check-in time is important but I also appreciated that most hotels in Japan give out rooms when they are ready for a better guest experience. You could get a coffee out of the coffee machine in the lobby as you waited but you have to pay for it which I found unusual.
