Clean, modern, friendly and helpful staff. The only negative is the mattresses were a little on the hard side, didn’t really bother me but some people might have an issue with it.

We had an excellent stay at Kabin Taka. The room was spacious, quiet, and very clean. Rooms in Japan are notoriously pretty small, but Kabin had enough room for a small dining table and bath made this place feel like home. Bonus points for the easy laundry room, luggage storage and fantastic coffee shop in the lobby.

Beautifully maintained and comfortable beds

Had to wait past 3pm for check in as our room was not ready for some reason, which cuts into time to plan other things. We really wanted that shower first and to change clothes. They have a luggage locker room, but that didn’t suit our needs. Otherwise the property was beautifully maintained and had a nice garden as well. Rooms were clean and staff were friendly.
