convenient, spacious, friendly.
Pros:

It was wonderful to have a large dining table we could eat and work at, as well as a small kitchenette. Compared to a business hotel, this was spacious and even had a great view towards the mountains. The area around the hotel was super walkable, lots of little shops and restaurants nearby in all directions, but overall a quieter area so it was very calm and relaxing. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Cons:

We couldn't open the windows, so it was a bit hot and stuffy. The airconditioner made a loud noise when it was on so we preferred not to use it. Luckily it wasn't too hot.

値段と立地で選んだがお値段以上
Pros:

フロントにスタッフがいること。チェックインが遅めでもいい設定だったこと。予定が変わり現地に早く来ても、スマホで伝えられたこと。フロントは日本人ではなかったが充分、対応できること。5人宿泊でも充分な部屋で非常にきれいで快適だったこと。トイレもバスも広い!バスタブも!オーバーヘッドで角形ワイドシャワー?が珍しかった。普通のシャワーもあり。隣に素敵なカフェが早朝からオープンしていること。駐車場がホテル並びにあり夜間は最大料金で停められたこと。駐車場は周辺にもいくつかあった。

Cons:

特にありませんが私たちの場合は、駐車場がついてれば更に最高だったと思います。
