generally ok stay
large roomgreen teathin wallsdisruptive noise
the room was huge. it had much more space than my rooms in other cities (tokyo and osaka for example). i also appreciated that they cleaned the room daily. fresh matcha green tea bags were provided daily too.
the walls seemed quite thin. i could hear noises from other rooms and hallways. it was disruptive when trying to sleep as people came and went at late hours (around 1am).
