Guest accommodation is arranged in modest, functional rooms equipped with standard in‑room conveniences such as a flat-screen TV, refrigerator and microwave, plus linens and basic toiletries supplied with each stay. Check‑in windows and standard checkout times follow a typical urban hotel rhythm, and the property’s layout and room sizes reflect a focus on short overnight or rest periods rather than extended resort stays.

The property enforces an adults‑only policy and notes that parking is allocated on a first‑come basis, so planning arrival times can be important.

Old / dated facilities
Many comments mention that the building and room furnishings (carpets, wallpaper, couch, bathroom fixtures) are old and could benefit from renovation.

Guests reported issues such as broken washlet controls or missing remotes, lack of electrical outlets near the bed, and limited in‑room amenities (no plate for chopsticks, limited drink service).
No elevator / stairs to upper floors
Multiple reviews note there is no elevator to higher floors, which made carrying luggage or reaching third‑floor rooms difficult for some guests.
Noise and water/AC issues
Some guests experienced a noisy air conditioner, weak shower pressure or delays in hot water, and windows that could not be opened in certain rooms.
Unreliable Wi‑Fi and tight parking
