The hotel room was clean and quite spacious, but lacked some furnishings. The staff were very friendly and helpful; however, the pricing could be better. The location is convenient, near the train station and Todaiji Temple. The dining options were varied, but not exceptional. The facilities offered were satisfactory.

The hotel room may not be the most spacious, but it was clean and decent for me, though my wife thought differently. The service was a mix of niceness and slight brusqueness, with the staff being overall friendly and helpful. The location was convenient, especially for exploring the city center. The dining options offered some variety, although not all dishes were outstanding.

This hotel is a mixed bag with spacious but oldish-looking rooms. While the rooms were probably the largest I've ever stayed in for Japan, the small bathrooms felt like a ship cabin. The service was a hit or miss with slightly brusque interactions at times, but generally friendly and helpful. The location is convenient but may lead you astray on certain occasions. Dining options vary greatly, from savory breakfast choices to somewhat lackluster offerings. The facilities are decent but could use some modern upgrades.

One of the cleanest rooms I've ever had in Japan, although not up to my wife's standards. The room was quite bare, with only a table and four chairs on the floor. The service was very friendly and helpful, going out of their way to assist. The location is excellent, right in the city center, with the convenience of leaving shoes before stepping onto the tatami. The dining options had a good variety but fell short of being exceptional. The facilities were basic but met our needs for the stay.

The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious, the largest I've had in Japan, but appeared old and tired. The service was friendly and went out of their way to assist. The location was good, in the center of the city, despite some confusion on Christmas night. The dining had variety but wasn't the greatest. The facilities were sufficient overall.

My stay at this hotel was a mixture of highs and lows. While the rooms were very small with really tiny bathrooms, reminiscent of a ship cabin, the location was good and convenient for exploring Nara. The service was slightly brusque at times, but overall the staff were nice and helpful. The dining experience had a lot of variety in the morning but was not the greatest overall. The facilities were modern and well-maintained.

The hotel is located on a noisy, busy road and the rooms are very small with tiny bathrooms, reminiscent of a ship cabin. The bare rooms had minimal furniture, mainly a table and 4 chairs on the floor. The service was friendly and helpful, with staff going out of their way to assist guests. The hotel's location is good, except for some confusion finding it at Christmas night. The dining options, while offering variety, were not the greatest. The facilities were basic, however, the value for money was reasonable.
