The laundry was clean and easy to use. The room was reasonably clean but could do with a deep clean, under the beds and behind the units.

Really good location but room is very small and was a bit dusty. In comparison to other hotels we stayed in japan this was the least clean out of all of them but overall still very clean for a normal (non japanese) standard.
