Hiratsuka Trip

Standard APA hotel; small but cozy and comfortable. I couldn't find any HDMI plugs on the TV, so I didn't plug in my Switch. Noise level was "pretty low, for the most part." Four elevators ensured I rarely encountered another person until I reached the lobby. I didn't check to see if there was a coin laundry. Dueling Lawson locations (across the courtyard-like area in front of the hotel), when a nearby 7-11 would have been preferable to a 2nd Lawson. Coffee from the area's vending machines (and Lawson) was more expensive than usual, probably on account of the area being tourist-heavy. *Strong point: Three vending machines in the hotel, each with a different selection of drinks, and each with a zero-calorie soda.

This hotel was just outstanding. Service was top drawer in every way. The street was blocked off (a complete vehicle closure to let people shop and walk in the street). The staff personally arranged for a taxi and walked us to the location for pickup with our luggage. The location is right in the middle of a fantastic local shopping area and is very interesting. It is also a two minute walk to a large temple which was very interesting to visit. Just an outstanding place to stay 15 minutes from the NRT airport if you have some time on an overnight stay.

Amazing, unique experience. Historical buildings renovated with modern furnishings. Beautiful craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout. Staff was very helpful and respectful. Highly recommend!

Large rooms, good breakfast, convenient to local points of interest.

Buffet breakfast is very good. Property condition is not as good as some other hotels in the area.
