Higashi Chaya District Tours

Everything was very good! Bill had a personalized attention. The apartment is so new and everything works great. It’s close and convenient to things to do in the city, convenient to take a taxi to the train station or downtown. A family mart is close. The apartment is not huge (for American standards). Our 5 people felt like really tight so consider that when getting it. It was access to a nice rooftop. Perhaps the only thing you would want out of this property to be is that the payment at the property is done in their office in the building and not the apartment which was a little inconvenient. For us travelers that can afford this property we could simply pay in advance and not have to interact with the landlord.

Terrible Hotel — Misleading Description, Dirty Slippers, and a Breakfast Scam This hotel was absolutely awful and does not deserve four stars. Its Expedia listing is misleading and creates a completely false impression. 1. Misleading description: What looks like beautiful light-colored wood in the photos is actually cheap laminate. The room looks far better online than in reality. 2. Unsafe lighting: The floor lighting is so bright you could read a book at night. It makes sleeping difficult, but turning it off leaves a step invisible in the darkness, creating a serious risk of falling. We had to sleep wearing eye masks! 3. Disgusting slippers: The hotel provides dirty, worn-out slippers with visibly damaged soles. Completely unacceptable! 4. Breakfast SOLD OUT: During our four-day stay, breakfast was available for only two days. The other two days were SOLD OUT! How can a four-star hotel fail to provide breakfast to its guests? 5. Breakfast rip-off: Expensive, tasteless, and ridiculously inconvenient. You must order a day ahead from confusing pictures and unfamiliar Japanese dish names. You receive a fixed box of food with no substitutions or choices. It takes too long to eat and isn’t sufficiently filling. Worse, prepaid breakfasts cannot be canceled or refunded. This feels like a scam. Final verdict: Cheap materials, unsafe lighting, dirty slippers, and disastrous breakfast service. The hotel misleads guests through its Expedia listing. One of my worst hotel experiences.

Everything exceeded my expectation.
