Would revisit!
Pros:
- Conveniently located about a 10-minute walk from Nagoya Station, making transportation easy.
- The water pressure in the bathroom is strong, and there's a bathtub that, while short in length, is deep enough to enjoy a half-body bath.
- The room generally feels clean.
- Each room is equipped with a coffee machine and two complimentary capsules.
- The coffee pot looked clean, so I felt comfortable using it.
- The refrigerator works well.
- The lobby on the first floor has many tables, and you can use the beverage dispenser and automatic coffee machine for free, so you can bring in snacks/food from outside to eat.
- Although there are no amenities provided in the room, you can freely take as many amenities as you need from next to the front desk on the first floor.
- There's a free ice machine and water dispenser on the second floor, so you can fill your room's cup with water or fill the ice bucket provided in the room with ice. (However, since the room cups are small, it's more convenient to buy a water bottle outside and fill it up.) Paid vending machines are also available.
- I didn't visit, but the public bath is also available. Surprisingly, many people use it.
- ★The breakfast quality is excellent.
Cons:
- Being about a 10-minute walk from Nagoya Station, it can be a bit difficult to move around with heavy luggage.
- As is common with all Japanese hotels, the room is very small. If you bring a 28-inch suitcase, the bathroom door might only open halfway, or there might be no space to stand.
- The bathroom is also very small. It's impossible for two people to brush their teeth simultaneously.
- While not all staff were like this, the staff member who checked me in spoke so softly that it was difficult to understand them.
- This might have only been the case for our room (Room 707), but the bathroom fan was broken, causing a rotten water smell to permeate the bathroom for two out of three nights. (When I reported it to the front desk on the third day, they fixed it immediately during cleaning.)
- Whether due to the room being very dry or the carpeted floor having a lot of dust, even with the air purifier on, my rhinitis worsened every time I woke up, causing discomfort.
