    Multiple reviewers mention the hotel as clean and tidy (e.g., 'rent', 'propreté', spa-like en suite bathrooms); overall housekeeping is praised.

    Consistently outstanding staff feedback: very helpful, friendly, assisted with bookings, lost-and-found (wallet), late-night support and assistance with a medical incident.

  • Location9.3

    Repeatedly noted as an excellent location for exploring the city and very close to metro stations; reviewers highlight convenience for sightseeing.

  • Room Quality8.2

    Rooms described as spacious and comfortable with good bathrooms, but some issues reported (two beds pushed together for couples; adjacent bathroom that can’t be locked from outside for some rooms).

    Strong amenities: guest lounge, laundry facilities, complimentary kits/water, communal areas and a rooftop (noted as underused) and spa-like bathrooms.

    Generally seen as fair value given location and service, though a few guests expected more for the price (self check-in kiosks and some service-formality issues noted).

  • Food and Beverage6.8

    Several comments criticize breakfast (limited choices, not flexible, not to all tastes, poor coffee); food/BF experience is the weakest area in reviews.

Charmant hôtel au design ravissant, bien situé, avec une lounge room très agréable pour travailler ou se reposer. Personnel adorable. Ambiance zen, chambre jolies et très propres. C'est mon cinquième ou sixième séjour et j'y reviendrai.

Une seule chose (à supposer qu'on n'a pas une chambre bruyante sur la rue et/ou avec salle de bain extérieure) : la gestion du petit déjeuner. Il faut commander la veille et non seulement dire ce qu'on veut manger (parmi des sandwiches et une soupe à l'occidentale assez peu intéressants) mais aussi à quelle heure précise (!) on veut petit-déjeuner, ce qui n'est vraiment pas vacances-compatible. Le thé vert n'est pas inclus dans la formule alors qu'on peut en prendre en libre-service dans la lounge room - mais on n'a pas droit d'en rapporter dans la salle du petit déjeuner !

Atmosfera in hotel foarte faina,aproape de metrou si statii de autobuz,la barul de la receptie au cafea foarte buna,ceea ce este destul de greu de gasit in Japonia....camera de 3 paturi futon cu tatami a fost autentica si confortabila,chiar daca are toaleta separat de camera,dar este ca intr-un apartament micut.Camera nu este foarte mare,dar e ok,iar saltelele foarte confortabile

Daca te duci la baie trebuie sa iei o cartela cu tine,dar nu e chiar asa de complicat

Het ontbijt. Je moet een dag vantevoren een tijdslot reserveren wanneer je wilt ontbijten. Ook moet je 's avonds een keuze maken welke van de 3 sandwiches je wilt hebben. Iedere dag kan je uit dezelfde 3 sandwiches kiezen. Als ik dit had geweten dan had ik geen ontbijt geboekt. We hebben zelf maar wat exrra fruit en yoghurt bij de supermarkt gekocht.

Location was great. Nice neighbourhood and close to subway station. Common room for guests and Roof top was very nice for bringing own foods.

The rooms were very small and mattresses we’re quite hard.
