Some of the friendly staff do not speak English fluently, but they always tried to help, so it would be helpful if you know a little bit of Japanese.
Very high value for the price.

Close to JR station and easy to go to other cities. Clean, but room is small and equipment seems out-date.

Fairly expensive for the price paid.
Greedy on the buffet breakfast. Barely had food left at 8:30am when it is meant to go until 9:30 - last order at 8:10. Won’t recommend opting for the breakfast option.
Receptionists were welcoming.

It was a comfortable stay in an older building. The desk was nice and large and wifi was decent as I had to do a little work. The location to the train was very convenient.

This is the worst hotel I have stayed in Japan. The room was musty and moist, the AC was not workin properly, I woke up at 1 am to 91 degrees. The bed was like laying on the floor.

Rooms are very small. Double is okay for one, but really too small for two. They only clean the rooms every 3 days, otherwise you leave your garbage and towels outside your door before 10 am. My bathroom had mold between the tiles in the bathroom. Staff was excellent and lovely. Breakfast was okay.

I was having breathing problems at night and once i switch off the Aircon and open the windows everything is okay or i have to keep the Air purifier run all night. I stayed in a hotel near Smile hotel with similar room rent but far better rooms.

The breakfast buffet was terrible, and the closing time is 9:30am but they stopped putting out food 30 minutes before closing. If you come out late you get white rice and a cup of coffee, also they don’t offer coffee or tea in the room for guests.

I didn’t expect the place to be kinda old but it was decent for the price I paid. Also, when you go to the smoking floor to do laundry, you can tell it’s the smoking floor.
