Overall a good stay with easy to access train station directly in front of hotel entrance. Biggest issue was the very badly orientation of the furniture was extremely cramped and uncomfortable. Due to fear of damaging furniture I was unable to move anything and had to deal with the poorly designed room.

Stayed for one night before my flight back home and it was comfortable. Close to the station and there's a FamilyMart a minute down the road. One bedroom rooms are tiny but cozy. Though, the elevators could get annoying if you're on the upper floors even with four of them, but great hotel overall!

The hotel is clean and quiet. Beds are comfy. Bath amenities are complete with everything we need including toothbrush, comb, you name it…Basically, the guest doesn’t need to bring any bath amenities. The bathroom is a bit small. Be careful of the step at the entrance. I almost tripped getting into the bathroom. The overall experience is good.
