Pros:

Ik vond de liggen erg goed. Het is een hygiënisch hotel.

Cons:

Naar drie weken Japan vind ik de gereserveerdheid rn de vriendelijkheid van het personeel afstandelijk. Nooit geïnteresseerd in een ander mens. Nooit wordt er geïnteresseerd met jouw één gesprek aangegaan. Je kunt personeels vervangen met een robot. Terwijl Japans of het algemeen heel gezellig zijn. En graag haar praatje maken. Op uitzonderingen na zijn japanse hotel kil maar efficiënt.

Pros:

I liked the location - convenient access to the station and Nara park. Staff were nice, the room was comfortable for a one night stay.

Cons:

Room could be a bit bigger and our window was facing another building, so natural light in the room was quite dim.

Pros:

Location is quite close to Nara park

Cons:

Check-out is already at 10am, we left our bags when we went for a coffee nearby and had to pay a 1000JPY penalty since we left our bags in the room until 10h20 (our bad we didn't check the checkout time of course).
Rooms are not very spacious, but okay for a short stay.
