It was nice that we could leave our luggage there allowing us to visit the castle and enjoy the festivities without carrying our luggage around.

Comfortable
Comfortable and well equipped for a short stay. Rooms are a little smaller than some similar hotel chains, but perfectly OK and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful. UK TV news and English language films were a plus.

Nice and clean room. Lots of free streaming on the tv. Small bathroom. The temperature was awful, like 25C because you can't control the AC. The beds were very soft, which we do not prefer at least, but that is subjective.

We were unable to check in until the allotted time of 3pm and late check-out cost 1000 yen for an hour. Breakfast options were just rubbish.

A disappointing stay
We arrived at 1.30pm, which was earlier than the 3 pm checkin and asked if we could have an early check in if our room was ready. It was heavily raining outside.
We were informed that we could check in early for a fee of 10000 yên. We have travelled to Japan many times and have never experienced this.This response was not welcoming and inhospitable, given the terrible weather that day. We felt that an exception could have been made.
