The hotel was clean and functional, which is exactly what I needed. The buffet breakfast offered a wonderful variety that exceeded my expectations. However, I encountered some issues with the staff's communication and the overall room condition left something to be desired. While the location was convenient near the station, the lack of adequate room maintenance was disappointing.

Rooms

The twin room was average-sized, but the decor felt quite dated. It had a working air conditioning unit, which was a relief, and the room was equipped with basic amenities. I’d rate the room a 6 out of 10 due to the size of the bathroom, which was particularly cramped.

I had quite a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the location was really convenient, just a short walk from the JR station, making it easy to explore the area. The breakfast had its highlights, and I enjoyed the big bath on the 14th floor with a great view. On the other hand, I encountered issues with rude service, especially during check-in, and the room had stains which should have been addressed more professionally. Overall, it’s a decent place with potential, but the service left a lot to be desired.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the cleanliness and the opportunity to enjoy traditional Japanese baths were wonderful, the service left much to be desired, especially during check-in. The location is convenient for getting around Kanazawa, but the room conditions and management were quite disappointing.

The room was of average size and clean, but the bathroom was tiny and the decor felt dated. It was comfortable enough for a short stay, though packing for the shower could be a hassle for taller guests.

Unfortunately, the service was quite poor, especially at check-in where the staff was rude and dismissive. I felt like I was an inconvenience rather than a guest.

The public bath on the top floor is a nice touch and added to the traditional experience, though I didn’t get to try it myself.
