I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, thanks to its great location near the bustling nightlife and numerous dining options. The rooms were tidy but a bit cramped and could use some updates, especially the mattress. The service was friendly and responsive, which made my experience more enjoyable. Overall, it's a good value for the price, but don't expect modern amenities.

The hotel offers a clean and comfortable stay, with a great breakfast and a friendly staff. While it provides a good base to explore Kobe, the location is a bit far from Sannomiya station, and the rooms could use some updates. Overall, it's decent value for money given the amenities and cleanliness.

I had a decent stay at this hotel. The location is fantastic, surrounded by plenty of restaurants and right next to a beautiful shrine, but the room was a bit cramped for three people and had some unpleasant odors. While the service was okay, the noise from the street made it hard to enjoy a good night’s sleep. Overall, it’s a fair place considering the value for money, but there are some areas to improve.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. It's nestled in a peaceful area yet so close to various restaurants, making it a great spot for couples. The rooms are manageable in price, but the value for money could be slightly improved.

I had a pretty good stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, right in the heart of Kobe, making it easy to explore the area. The room was clean and had a nice view of trees and bamboo, but it felt a bit small for my taste. The staff was friendly and accommodating, which added to the overall positive vibe. However, the dining options could use some improvement as they were somewhat limited, and I found it a bit inconvenient that parking wasn’t included.

I stayed at this hotel for two nights, and while the location was great, being close to many attractions and public transport, I was let down by the room condition. It felt like it had been stuck in the 70s with old furniture and wasn’t quite what I expected from the pictures. That said, it was comfortable enough for the price. The service provides a solid experience, and I appreciated the value for money in this busy area.
