schönes Hotel
Pros:

Das Hotel war sehr nah vom Bahnhof von Kintetsu und gar nicht so weit vom JR-Bahnhof Nara entfernt.
Zu jeder Sehenswürdigkeit des Stadtzentrums kann man gut zu Fuß erreichen. Außerdem gibt es in der Nähe vom Hotel nette Passagen.

Cons:

nichts

Great location
Pros:

The location was great, very close to Kintetsu train station, walking distance to the deer park, Higashimuki shopping street, Mochiidono shopping street, Naramachi historic district etc.

Cons:

The bathroom door opens into the room, and the corridor is very narrow, so it's awkward to move around.
