Rooms were very clean and spacious for 3 pax. Toilets are in tip top condition. Room cleaning was done daily. The coin laundry was clean and convenient. 600yen per 30min washing, or 1hr drying. There are English speaking staff at front desks. 2min walk to USJ or train station. Convenience store with good food just beside hotel. Microwave available at lift lobbies. There is shoe dryer in every room. Made good use of them as it rained. Umbrellas can be borrowed from front desk. Overall, highly recommended!

Very convenient location for USJ and great buffet breakfast. Dinner options on the expensive side and not that great. Rooms are a bit dated and included lockers are slightly smaller than the station large lockers so bags close to the threshold won't fit. Staff will hold on to your larger bags so it was fine

Would be great if we didn’t always have to take off our shoes to be on the wooden floors so we can eat our breakfast /lunch/dinner

Unbelievably bad hotel. The beds were some of the most uncomfortable I've ever slept on. The beds felt like you were sleeping on concrete. You got one pillow which had bean bag beads in it. The towels were very dirty and there were hairs all over the bathroom. Truly awful and I'd never stay here again

Short distance to JR and USJ. Room is very small. We booked in a 3xTwin-bed room for 2 adults and 2 children, though the twin bed would be enough for myself and 4yo. It ended up 3 single beds in the room and hotel refused to add another bed. The photos of the room definitely looked like 3 double beds.
