I found the hotel to be a great choice for my stay. The rooms were of a good size with a clean bathroom and amenities, and it was a short walk from the railway station. The double bed and access to the lounge added to the comfort of the stay. The absence of cigarette smoke was a big plus, although the executive floor room I was in felt a bit cramped.

The hotel's location was convenient, just a 5-minute walk from the train station, making it ideal for transport links. However, the immediate neighborhood wasn't that appealing, and reaching attractions like the castle and shopping areas required more walking.

The dining options at the hotel were decent, though not exactly what I expected considering the extra charges. The sandwiches were delicious, but there is room for improvement to cater better to all guests' tastes.

My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms, although on the smaller side as is common in Japan, were clean and cozy, equipped with a handy Android phone for convenient local communication. The service was exceptional with staff going above and beyond, even driving me to my destination. The location, while not the best neighborhood-wise, was still convenient for transport links and sightseeing. The dining experience offered a nice variety of both local and western options. However, the immediate surroundings lacked appeal. Price-wise, it was decent value for the amenities provided.
