This hotel is a gem, nestled near the town center, offering everything you need and more. The rooms are cozy but slightly cramped with a chest of drawers in the bedroom and bunk beds squeezed in. The service is top-notch, with efficient room service available. The location is unbeatable, very close to everything you could want. The dining experience, especially the shabu-shabu, is a delight. Overall, a great stay with some minor room size inconveniences.
