I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and quiet, which made for a great sleeping environment. The breakfast was fantastic, offering both Japanese and European options, and the staff was incredibly helpful and spoke English well. However, the location is a bit out of the way compared to more central options, and some upkeep in the rooms could improve the experience.

During my stay, I found the hotel to be reasonably priced, but it lacked some comforts. The rooms were a bit stuffy and had an unpleasant smell. However, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making up for some shortcomings. The location was a bit far from the main train station but still manageable for getting around. Overall, it has potential with its friendly atmosphere, but it might not be my top choice next time.

On the plus side, the location was really convenient for getting around Kanazawa and the staff were incredibly friendly, greeting us with bottled water upon arrival. The rooms were clean and spacious compared to other places I've stayed in Japan. Unfortunately, the dining options weren't impressive, and the service in English could have been better. Overall, it was a decent stay but not without its flaws.

I had an okay stay at the hotel. While the staff were friendly and accommodating, the room I initially had was plagued by a horrible sewer smell, which definitely needs to be addressed. The location is convenient for transport, but it's a bit far from the main city attractions. Overall, it was decent for the price, but I wouldn’t say it’s a top choice.
