“We had a wonderful stay. The building and facilities felt brand new and well-maintained. The room was spacious and spotless, with a comfy bed, a mini-fridge, and a wide bathroom with three separate zones. The bathroom's heating system even dried our laundry. Being close to Higashiyama station and a market made exploring easy.”
