Perfect stay. Free bread, juice and coffee was so good. The bedding really provided the perfect comfort. It was so nice to have the life market and fresco market right around the corner. It was really nice to walk around the small alleys from hotel towards Nishiki Market direction.

Great stay overall. The hotel was very clean, smelled fresh, and everything felt well maintained. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout. It’s a non-smoking property, which made a big difference. The rooms are on the smaller side, but still comfortable. Location was super convenient with easy walking distance to shops, 7/11s, and everything you’d need. Would definitely stay here again.

There are restaurants and a Family Mart combini next door. One block away there is a supermarket. You'll have all your needs covered at walking distance. I choose breakfast included and you get a mix of japanese with western items bento box. In the front you have a nice coffe machine, and matcha tea in the afternoons.
