I appreciated the mini fridge, slippers and night gown that were free to use with the room. There was also a microwave in the lobby along with free coffee. I communicated just fine with the staff in English, they were accommodating for storing luggage early before checkin. The lobby was nicely decorated. I love the giant stone/moss ball. ##### Carol Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Yoko Jul 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Clean quiet minimum needs.
