2 Words, RUN AWAY

Do yourself a big favor. Spend that little extra and stay somewhere else. Dated, wouldnโ€™t do this place justice. Smelled of cigarettes at the entryway of building. The reception area or lack there of area needs to be seriously evaluated and define. As far as today, this place doesnโ€™t have an ACTUAL desk area. Itโ€™s a BAR with a chairโ€ฆ anywho the elevators, hallways, and the room made me feel like I was in the movie โ€œthe shiningโ€ right where you hear โ€œRed Rum. The hotel bed is too firm and felt aches, the โ€œdesignโ€ room is very much in need of renovating. Oh yes lastly, shouldโ€™ve been at the top! Even when you have already paid for booking, they DEMAND a 200 yen fee for โ€œConsumption Taxโ€ even though itโ€™s 200 yen the clerk (short Japanese girl mid 20s or younger with glasses and can speak a little English) stating a bit loud โ€œyou pay this nowโ€โ€ฆ. I will never in this life or the next life stay at this place again.

This offers great value for money - itโ€™s very clean, with all the usual hotel amenities (kettle, fridge etc) and in a good location. The only negative is that there was no way to control the temperature in the room apart from turning the heating off and opening the window. The room was too warm for my liking so that would be the only negative point. Otherwise, the stay was excellent and itโ€™s fantastic value for money.

Check in was simple, property was clean and spacious for 3 pax in a room. It was a nice walk to the city centre, although most shops do close pretty early in the city. Parked car at the property and check in staff explained that we could go in and out as many times as we would like after paying the one time parking fee.

The staff were great and the lobby/dining areas have a nice atmosphere. The room was, however, not updated like the shared areas. The plug in the bathroom didn't work and wallpaper was peeling. The air filter was malfunctioning. I thought the price was too high considering these points. The breakfast was good but would have liked some choice or consultation for meat replacement.
