I had 2 major problems during my stay. First, my toilet was not functioning during first and second night there, it would not flush properly thus I need to move rooms. Secondly, they require you to change rooms for what's seems to be every 7 days, I have no idea why this needs to happen. So now, the most inconvenient part starts, as you must move your all your belongings down to the front desk by 10am, and the new room is not ready until 3pm, so I had to improvise a plan how to deal with my 2 pieces of luggage and my stuffed backpack. Not incredibly difficult but inconvenient for me. My stay totaled 14 days but I had to change rooms 3 different times. Even though the rooms are clean and have a decent amount of space for being a cheap chain hotel, it did inconvenience me quite a bit. I have been to Japan quite a bit and this is my first time have an issues at all. Regardless of the room situation, everything else is fine, the included breakfast is just a riceball and a few other things which is fine, nothing to cheer for. The best part about this place is the access to many local locations like Oji Shrine, great restaurants, and the train station. So there is stuff to look around that isn't stuffed with tourists. If you going during cherry blossoms season, there is a local park that has an amazing view of many cherry blossom trees, very little tourist in this area. This is easily the hotel's best feature. It's hard to recommend, I would personally not be coming back.
