The hotel is conveniently located right next to the subway station, making it ideal for business travelers. The rooms are exceptionally small, feeling like a plastic box inserted into the space, which can be challenging for two people. The service at the reception is top-notch, with polite and helpful staff readily assisting with any inquiries. The dining options offer a variety at a reasonable price, although the Western breakfast is not as impressive. The hotel facilities are satisfactory, but the rooms could be more spacious for a comfortable stay.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, although clean and equipped with modern amenities like a large table-top flat screen TV and a small fridge, were quite small compared to other hotels I've stayed in. The view overlooked a busy highway, which was not ideal. On the upside, the location was excellent, with a subway station right outside the hotel making it super convenient to explore the city. The service had its highs and lows - while some staff members were pleasant and even provided helpful advice, others were indifferent, which was a bit disappointing. The dining experience was enjoyable, with a variety of delicious options available. The facilities overall were decent, but there were a few aspects that could be improved for a more satisfying stay.

The rooms were the smallest in the hotel and had a view overlooking a highway. They were clean and equipped with a large table-top flat screen TV, a small fridge, and a plug-in room ionizer. However, they felt cramped compared to rooms in Western hotels.

I found the hotel to be conveniently located near the subway entrance, making it easy to get around. The rooms were a bit cramped and had a yellow light that wasn't my favorite, but we could open the windows for fresh air. The service was friendly and attentive, with efforts to address any issues. The dining options offered a good variety of food, both Western and Japanese. However, the rooms felt a bit stale from smoke, which was a downside.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were very small, which made it challenging to move around with my luggage, the budget-friendly aspect was evident. The service was nice and helpful, though the staff's English skills were not so good. The location was fantastic, being right next to the subway lines, but I had to walk a bit to reach the second parking area. The dining was a bit expensive, but there was a convenience store nearby for alternatives.

The hotel is conveniently located right next to the subway station, making it easy to get around. The rooms are a bit small, especially for those with large luggage, but still decent. The service is a mix of friendly staff and a few rude encounters. The location is convenient with easy access to transportation, although a bit far from the city center. Dining options are basic but adequate. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel was conveniently located next to a subway station, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms were spacious and nice, especially by Japanese standards, but could get a bit stifling as the only available functions were heat and a fan. The service was polite and friendly, although there were some communication barriers. The dining options were satisfactory, offering both western and Japanese style food. Overall, a decent stay with good value for money.

The hotel had the smallest rooms, which were a little cramped but clean and comfy. It was the most overpriced and the worst room during our Japan travels. The service was very pleasant overall, especially the breakfast lady, although a few staff members were rude. The location, with a subway station just outside, was noisy but convenient for tourist attractions. Dining was a bit expensive, but the nearby convenience stores helped. Facilities were average. Not the best value for money overall.

Despite the small size of the semi double beds, they manage to fit two people comfortably without any major issues. The rooms, while clean and functional, are on the small side, making this a budget-friendly hotel choice. However, sound insulation from neighboring rooms could be improved.
