The staff were friendly, patient and helpful. They spoke English and answered questions. The breakfast was fresh and very tasty. I included the breakfast with my reservation and I would do it again. The atmosphere was very peaceful. The hotel is very clean and well kept. They called a taxi for me when I needed it.

A small Buddhist hotel, with nice staff and rooms, albeit a bit small. A 10 minute walk to Shinsekai area, where there are lots of restaurants and amusement arcades. Not flash but kind of fun.

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff were extremely kind and helpful during our stay, especially when we needed support to retrieve a lost item. We appreciated the extra activities of calligraphy and meditation. Highly recommended!!!

Great breakfast and very helpful staff. Try and get a room away from the road side as can be noisy at time. Would have been nice to see a view from the window instead of frosted glass. Otherwise beautiful room. Lovely PJs

A lovely hotel. Bugs unfortunately we were charged $20 for a plastic misplaced room key. I have stayed in many hotels and never been charged such an exuberant amount for a bit of plastic. Tainted our stay
