Nice hotel with a really good location in relation to Nara Park and important sights. Great city to visit! Within walking distance to streets with many restaurants and shops. Nearby there is also a small lake with a small, copyright udon restaurant and a Starbucks café. Generally a quiet, relaxed atmosphere in the area. We traveled by car and were happy with the free parking in the hotel's parking log, where there is space for about 6 cars. Clean rooms, good beds, large bathroom. You have to remember to hand in the key at the reception when you go out. Generally good service from friendly staff.

Stayed in the dormitory . The bunk bed desperately needs replacement. I will have a bruise from the hard cross bar. The metal bed also squeaks every time someone moves. Everything else was as expected

Very close to Nara Park, with parking! Staff's English was much better than most other merchants in Japan. No frills, clean place to stay. You're not going to Nara to sit in a hotel room!

We arrived early but were able to use the car park, which we found very convenient. The room smelt a bit, but it was quite clean, very conveniently located and quiet, so I was satisfied. I would like to stay at this hotel again on my next trip to Nara.
