The room was small but perfect for our needs (a party of 3), the location is excellent, nearby from bus stop, konbini and a train station. Definitely would recommend staying here as it made navigating the city much easier.

Um local muito estratégico, ao lado do Nijojo Castle. Um hotel bem simples, mas confortável. Apresenta o básico em relação aos demais hotéis do Japão, mas bem localizado (mais ou menos 6 min até a estação de metro - Tozai Line)
A very strategical place, that stay close to Nijojo Castle. It is a simple hotel, but very comfortable. It is simple when you compare to another hotels in Japan, but it's location is very good (around 6 min by walk to the nearest subway station - Tozai Line). I recommend this hotel if you want to spend less than another hotels and you don't bother with simple hotel.

The staff was great and very friendly, both receptionists I spoke to spoke English or spoke just enough to help me without an issue. If you're looking for a more quiet hotel that is still close to train and bus lines this is a great option for you.
They can also hold your luggage for you if you enter before the check in time.
