My childhood friend and I stayed at your hotel during our two week vacation to Japan. From parking to check-in to dinner to breakfast to check out it was a seamless streamlined experience. The staff was wonderful and the lovely gentleman at check-in was so kind patient and helpful.

The breakfast was good and plentiful.Staff were courteous and helpful. However I was very surprised at how hard the bed was we have not experienced that in the previous 7 nights at various northern Japan hotels. Sleep was difficult along with the loud level of train noise overnight.
