Compact room but great use of the space. I appreciated the mini fridge, slippers and night gown that were free to use with the room. There was also a microwave in the lobby along with free coffee. I communicated just fine with the staff in English, they were accommodating for storing luggage early before checkin. The lobby was nicely decorated. I love the giant stone/moss ball.

素敵なホテルでした

新しくて、とても綺麗なホテルでした。四条烏丸からも近いのでアクセスも良いです。 またホテル自体もモダンなデザインでおしゃれです。 最近よくある、高級ホテルの廉価版という感じで、いろいろなところがシンプルになっています。 泊まるだけならとても満足度は高いと思います。 なお、タバコの匂いがそこかしこからしていたので、換気や空気の流れを考慮した方が良いと思います。 あとちょっと壁が薄いのか、よくあるビジネスホテル並に外の声などがよく聞こえます。
