Really good Location and Clean Rooms

convenient locationspacious roomcomplimentary teajuice dispenser
I found the location convenient. It was right next to the train station. The room was spacious and very clean upon arrival. Daily towel replacements and cleaning services every two days were provided. They also included complimentary coffee, tea, water, and facial care kits, which i found very useful.
The hotel breakfast offered the exact same items every day. There was no fresh fruit juice available. The juice came from a soda dispenser. This felt unusual compared to other hotels i've stayed at.

The hotel provided direct access to Shinkansen and Kansai airport limited express trains, a HUGE plus for travellers. An in-room massage service, bookable at reception, offered very fair prices and skilled masseurs. This was especially beneficial after long days of sightseeing.
