mixed feelings about my stay

good breakfastsmall roomrestrictive policy
The breakfast was actually quite good. I especially enjoyed the fish option.
The room was just too small. There was barely any space to put my luggage after i had opened the futon. the communal area doubled as a bar, and i couldn't bring my own snacks or drinks in, so there was no place to relax unless i bought food there. it felt a little restrictive and wasn't ideal

I loved the fantastic dinner and breakfast. The staff was helpful. I was exhausted from traveling and fell asleep but they told me when the meals were ready. They provided a great collection of books about Japan and a really nice dining area. I had a true Japanese experience.
