The hotel is wonderfully located, right next to JR Kurashiki train station, making it super convenient to explore the city. The rooms, despite being slightly small, have a great view from the high floors and come with a comfortable sofa and TV, creating a cozy atmosphere. The service was friendly, but some might find it less helpful compared to other experiences in Japan. Dining options were decent, with a buffet available downstairs. The location is perfect for easy access to both the train station and the traditional Kurashiki attractions.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and neat, but a bit too small due to ongoing renovations. The service was efficient but lacked warmth, typical in rural areas. The location was superb, close to major transportation hubs, although there were minor communication issues at check-in. The dining was average, with a buffet in a windowless room. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
