房間設施雖然偏舊,但很乾淨;浴場空間不大,人多時會覺得有點擠&置物櫃數量不夠,可以的話避開晚餐後的尖峰去比較好。
Pros:

跟JR 奈良站共構,有空橋可以直接抵達飯店所在建物;樓下有公車站,到春日大社、奈良公園之類的景點玩非常方便。Happy hour 有提供酒水跟飲料。

次もぜひ利用させていただきたいです。
Pros:

駅直結で天候に左右されない、想像より距離が近かった。出発日も距離近いため、駅のコインロッカー使わずにホテルのセルフ手荷物預かり利用でお得感あり。
朝食も奈良名物の柿の葉寿司や、粕汁、奈良漬、茶粥、茶飯など楽しめました!

Cons:

よくないわけでは決してないのですが、建物が新しくはない点。
