Categories

Cleanliness
7.5
Mixed: several guests described rooms and common areas as clean and safe, but multiple reports note overflowing trash cans, cigarette butts in landscaping, and room maintenance issues (peeling paint, broken door), lowering the cleanliness impression.
Service
9
Mixed but generally strong: several reviewers praised Japanese-speaking staff, helpfulness with early check-in and problem resolution; one detailed report of rude/unprofessional front desk staff indicates inconsistency, but overall service is perceived positively.
Location
9
Positive: guests frequently noted a convenient, safe location near Japanese shops and restaurants, and appreciated free parking.
Room Quality
7
Below expectation in places: comfortable and minimalist for many, but multiple mentions of aging furniture, broken lights, tight faucet, and other maintenance issues reduce the room quality rating.
Amenities
9.5
Strong: the Japanese-style bath/spa, bathtub availability, microwave in some rooms, and complimentary parking were highlighted as notable positives (missing coin laundry noted as a minor drawback).
Value for Money
9
Generally good value for many guests due to breakfast and amenities, though one guest felt the price was high relative to declining maintenance — overall perceived as good value.
Food and Beverage
9.5
Very positive: the Japanese-style breakfast was repeatedly called outstanding and a highlight; a few guests wished for more Western options (fruit/granola/yogurt).
Overall Experience
8.3
Mixed but positive overall: many guests found the hotel clean, quiet, and comforting with authentic Japanese touches, while at least one guest reported a notable decline in maintenance and hospitality compared to pre-COVID standards.

Very disappointing compared to what this hotel used to be.
Pros:

The Japanese style bath and spa on the first floor are still very nice

Cons:

This used to be a really nice Japanese hotel, and it was always busy. Unfortunately, since COVID, the quality of this hotel has gone downhill significantly.

The trash cans around the property are often overflowing and left unattended. There are also cigarette butts in the landscaping, and the overall exterior looks poorly maintained. Inside the room, there were broken lights that had apparently never been fixed, peeling paint, and even a broken door.

The biggest disappointment, however, was the hospitality. The staff here used to be very professional and provided the kind of hospitality you would expect from a Japanese hotel. The front desk staff now seem to be mostly Mexican, and unfortunately, the service has changed completely. The staff I dealt with were rude and unprofessional, which was very disappointing compared with how this hotel used to be.

At this point, the overall experience feels closer to a Motel 6, while the price is still much higher.

It is very sad to see what used to be such a nice hotel become like this. Very sad.

Pros:

The Japanese breakfast is amazing. I’d stay there just for that. Heck I’d go to the hotel as a non guest just for that.
