Amazing
Pros:

Es war der beste Aufenthalt unserer Japan Reise, die betten waren sehr komfortabel, das Bad mit dem getrennten Klo super. Wir haben die Größe gemocht. Jeden morgen haben wir uns Cafe, Saft, Wasser, Brot und Croissants bekommen und sogar Matcha machen können. Die Lage war top, der Bus gleich vor der Türe. U-bahn 5-7min zu Fuß entfernt. Der Family Mart ist gleich daneben. Daher top!

A cosy hotel with friendly, welcoming staff who made the stay enjoyable from check-in to check-out.
Pros:

A cosy hotel with incredibly friendly and welcoming staff. I loved the thoughtful touches, especially the quality toiletries and comfortable robes. There was also a great selection of complimentary drinks in the reception area, including different juices, a coffee machine, and matcha.

The location is excellent—close to the train station and about a 13-minute walk to Nishiki Market. Having a 24/7 convenience store right next door was also very convenient and made our stay even more comfortable.

Cons:

A minor downside was that the sink was located in the bedroom rather than the bathroom. I would have preferred it to be inside the bathroom for a bit more privacy and convenience.

Ottima posizione ma non la colazione.
Pros:

Ottima posizione e la nostra stanza per gli standard giapponesi era amplia.

Cons:

La moquette in camera.
Il bagno era organizzato in tre spazi separati: il lavandino era nella stanza, di fronte al letto, mentre doccia e WC si trovavano in due ambienti distinti.
La colazione che prevedeva una box fissa con: carne o pesce, insalata, uova strapazzate, una piccola e macedonia senza possibilità di scelta. Consigliamo di non prenderla perché l'albergo mette a disposizione gratuitamente sia pane che cornetti da scaldare con burro e marmellata, il caffè/thè/latte.

Pros:

Good location as only few minutes by walk to subways and JR trains.
It is really down-town, on main living streets.
In Summer Festival, the location is inner the festival area.
Very well confortable and well furnished.

PS: there is a inside smoking lounge at hotel ground.
