"Location is really good, hotel is located just beside a huge shopping mall and short distance from a major shopping & food street, staff is very friendly and helpful, mechanical parking is available and quite convenient. However, only the toilet is too small."

Pleasant apartment in great location
"The flat is more spacious than I expected and we appreciated the washer and balcony equipped for drying clothes. The kitchen area is very small so it was hard to cook. The futons were very comfortable on the mezzanine level and, although the fan helped, it was very hot during the summer to sleep ..."

Nice city to spend couple of day. They are still under the recovery of the earthquake. Many places still closed for a visitation. However, it was nice enough to stroll in the city, enjoy local food and Kumamon.
