Located right in front of Nara Park and Sarusawa Pond, this hotel boasts excellent accessibility. Guests frequently cite the views of Kofuku-ji Temple and the pond from their windows as the hotel's biggest charm. It features a blend of modern facilities and traditional Japanese elements, with high satisfaction regarding the complimentary beverage and tea service in the 2nd-floor lounge.

The presence of a Starbucks on the ground floor adds convenience, and its proximity to surrounding shopping streets makes it an ideal environment for dining and shopping.
However, it is worth noting that check-in and check-out times are strictly enforced. Some guests have mentioned inconveniences such as the lack of bottled water due to environmental policies and the push-button shower faucet design.
