So initially, when I made the request for the room, it was for a double bed. Spokennoise it did not give me a double bed. What they presumed was was one bed that's double. Then, when I called explaining the situation, they told me it was a $5000 yen upcharge Entirely.It wasn't actually the hotel's fault.It was expedienceful but still it's ridiculous.The fact that I had to sleep in the same bed as well as my grown daughter.

Staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. Water pressure in shower was perfection, however mattress was quite hard…whilst one is walking so much that you’re happy to fall into anything at the end of the day, you definitely need some Motrin when you wake up. That being said, if you’re looking for accommodation close to the park at a very reasonable price, with excellent service to boot, you’ve found your spot.
