Without warning on the extra charge on the last day of stay, it charged extra for just 20min extra stay than the expected check-out time. First time I ever saw during so many years of hotel experience in countries. It feels like this hotel is hungry for charging customers money.

The location of the hotel is good - very close to the Nijojo Castle and close to subway and bus. The check-in was a little frustrating because none of the staff spoke English. There is a smoking room just beside the check-in desk, so the first thing you smell when you walk into the building is smoke. The place is bare-bones - rooms are small but adequate, no ice machine or ability to get ice at the hotel, no vending machines or food. The worst problem was the internet - when it worked, it was extremely slow. Half of the time it didn't work at all. The staff did their best to try to fix it, but it never worked well. Unfortunately, I can't really recommend this hotel.

Moderne und gut funktionierende Unterkunft. Der Check-in und Check-Out war einfach, elektronisch aber auch persönlich unterstützt. Per E-Mail kam vorab die Info, dass das Zimmer bereit sei und nach dem Check-In bekommt man eine weitere mit der Zimmernummer, Zimmerschlosscode und Code für den abendlichen/nächtlichen Zugang ins Hotel. (Gibt's aber auch persönlich am Empfang) Das Englisch des Personals war ok für die Basics. Gute Verkehrsanbindung und auch gastronomisch gibt's genug in der Nähe.
