- Wi-Fi can be weak in rooms — In-room internet may be unreliable, but the common area provides a connection.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travelers with animals should look elsewhere.

7.3Verified guest“Clean and safe, with easy access to main tourist streets. Three cheap supermarkets nearby for food, and a microwave in the hall for quick meals. Good connection to Universal Park, aquarium, and Kyoto via affordable trains. Great value, with private rooms that work as office space. Sauna and bath rival those in 5-star hotels. Quiet street at night and a budget restaurant nearby.”
