Great location, calm and serene accomodation
Pros:

Great location, super friendly staff, comfortable bedding
The general "vibe" of the hotel is like a day spa - calm, serene and quiet. Perfect for a relaxing break.

Cons:

It would be more comfortable id the tatami had the floor seats (seats without legs), and if the single beds could be put together.

Hôtel confortable et bien placé
Pros:

L’hôtel est très bien situé, ce qui permet d’accéder facilement aux principaux points d’intérêt par bus ou métro. Le personnel a été particulièrement attentionné et s’est occupé du transfert de nos bagages, ce que nous avons vraiment apprécié. La chambre était spacieuse et confortable. Dans l’ensemble, un très bon séjour.

Cons:

Les fenêtres donnaient sur un immeuble très proche, ce qui limitait un peu la luminosité naturelle.
