Incredible Value

Great mini getaway with my 12 year old. Double bed was big enough for both of us to get a good nights sleep and Japanese buffet breakfast included for this price? Incredible value. Friendly staff, English information sheets. There is an extra cost of 100 yen for a spare towel (we got rained on) but extra pillows are free ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Affordable and very clean.

Very clean property. It's mainly marketed to Japanese business people so there were no Western breakfast options. Breakfast was served in grab and go bento boxes. Breakfast is the one meal of the day I have to eat something familiar so it was McDonald's or bakery option for me and I'm sorry I can't say how good their breakfast was. Everything else was very nice.

Great for a business stay

The staff was helpful and even spoke a bit of English. The hotel was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was Japanese style but they did have scrambled eggs for anyone wanting more western food. Its close to the station and the big mall. I would recommend this hotel for anyone staying for business.

Proximity to the TX station and decent price with reasonable breakfast (carry rice and dumplings) makes it an easy choice.
