The hotel is conveniently located near the main tourist attractions, such as the Nara National Museum and Nara Park. It is a short walk from the old Kyoto and surrounded by a peaceful neighborhood. The traditional Japanese rooms with tatami mats and futons provide an authentic experience. The staff is friendly and helpful, ensuring a comfortable stay. The hotel offers a delicious Japanese breakfast and has a beautiful view from the rooftop. The rooms are comfortable and equipped with modern amenities, such as wifi and electronic toilets.
One negative aspect is that some facilities may be outdated, adding to the charm of the hotel but potentially lacking in luxury compared to more modern accommodations.
