Since I can't speak Japanese and don't know how to complain this problem to the hotel. So be aware when use the service.

My stay was quite pleasant. It is walkable to main places under 20mins.

The beds also aren’t very comfortable. It’s a nice hotel but not a dreamy stay.

Room size and layout was great and well thought of. You can keep...
