"The property seems to be recently updated, it is modern, and clean. The amenity is lacking a few things (for example, it tells the guest to wash dishes and put them away but doesn’t provide a clothe to dry them). Also, the instruction isn’t super clear. The instruction reads to leave the key on the table when checking out (that’s what it says literary in English), when in fact you need to lock and put the key in the lockbox as one example. Also the road to access the property is quite narrow...

"A really lovely hotel with a boutique vibe. We had a corner room with lots of light - good bathroom and comfortable (big) bed too. There is an open bar with soft drinks and a pay bar with wine and sake. The lounge/reception is a pleasant place to relax. All staff were friendly and helpful. Lots of breakfast options. Convenient for transport, with a metro station 100 metres away. Perhaps the nicest place we have stayed in Japan on this trip."
