“For a reasonable price, this adults-only hotel provides a more spacious experience than typically found in Japan, including king beds and even jacuzzi tubs in some rooms. Though a bit removed from the city center, a nearby bus stop and friendly staff help bridge the distance. I think it's a solid choice for couples seeking value and comfort.”
