Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms are compact — Japanese hotel rooms, including these, tend to be small. Some guests may find the space tight, especially for longer stays or with large luggage.
  • Some amenities may disappoint — A few guests found the restaurant's frozen food and the WiFi connection less than ideal. Breakfast quality earned mixed praise.
  • Strict check-out time — Check-out is at 10:00, which is early by some standards. Late checkout is available for 1000 yen, but it's an extra cost.
  • No pets allowed — If you're traveling with a pet, this hotel is not suitable – only service animals are typically accommodated.
