So far, the most beautiful room of our honeymoon, clean and spacious, very typical and modern, hotel close to services like subway and bus, very kind and helpful staff, and also very welcoming.

Staff molto accogliente e gentile. Le camere hanno uno stile tipico giapponese, perfetto per immergersi nella cultura del Paese. La colazione non è molto varia e non è presente un servizio di lavanderia.

Struttura molto accogliente, buona colazione, camere spaziose per essere in Giappone e ovviamente molto pulite. Lo staff super gentile e disponibile per qualsiasi cosa.
