So many excellent surprises!
Pros:

The location was so close to so many restaurants and stores and attractions! They also offer an amazing breakfast for only 800 yen with free coffee and ice cold water throughout the day. Take a walk behind the hotel next to the stream and river to find so many hidden gems including restaurants and nightlife on the weekend. The room and bed were very comfortable and the hotel unexpectedly provided free amenities such as epsom salts for the bath.

Cons:

The week went by too fast!

Really good
Pros:

The staff is friendly, it’s super well located, the hotel is clean and the rooms are very good for Japanese standards.

Cons:

The breakfast is very poor in options.
I had and issue with the fan on my bathroom which I had to wait everytime it turned on to turn off by itself since I called the receptionist and with the cleaning lady they came to that conclusion . For me who is a person very sensitive to noise it was a big issue.
