Solo traveler from Narita-shi, Chiba , JAPAN
Guest score: 5.43 / 10 5.43 average,
+ The hotel is very nice. I could enter spa ever day,it is very comfotable. The weathers were too bad during my stay. But I spent my time to treat my body by spa and massage.
- The room was too small. I think it is not good four 4 stars hotel. And a bed was terrible, it was too hard to sleep well. The location is far from city side. If it was fine, It was easy to go around. But it was rain and really cold during my stay.
