Ok but can be improved

Great location for Nara main attractions. Easy to find restaurants, next to a market, short walk to Nara Park. The place is new, easy to find and easy to use in general. Few things could be improved. Check in instructions were sent in Japanese only and we needed some codes to access the place so it wasn’t straight forward. Towels were super small and the futon super thin you basically sleep on top of the carpet. We have stayed in plenty of futon and tatami hotels in our trip and this one was definitely missing the thick part. Uncomfortable night. Also on arrival, although the place was clean that was a horrible smell that went away once we open the windows and air the room

コンパクトで無駄がない室内、清潔で快適でした。唯一気になったのは、ロフトベッドが思ったより高い位置にあり、ハシゴでの上り下りが少し怖かったくらいです。周りの部屋の音はよく聞こえますが、皆さん夜と朝は静かに過ごしていたので、問題ありませんでした。

ならまちの風情のある場所の真ん中にあって、周辺の散策がしやすく楽しかった。 ダブルの布団はロフトだと狭く（落ちそう）窮屈だったので、３人部屋にしたのだが、かけ布団が１枚しかなく、ロフトで寝るしかなかったことが不満。２人以上であれば、１階のソファベッドでも寝られるようにしてほしいと思った。
