I ended up booking this apartment style hotel a little bit away from the station because I was traveling with my adult kids and wanted the space. We were in Nagoya for the Ghibli park, but I ended up enjoying Nagoya more than I expected to. The room is about 3/4 of a mile from Nagoya station in an area a little less lively than that right around the station. However, there were quite a few good restaurants around, including a Korean restaurant right next door. A local subway entrance is less than a block away. The room was spacious and had modern amenities, plenty of outlets, a toilet that woke up and beeped when you walked in, a large tub, etc. It was very comfortable. Staff was super friendly. It felt secure and safe. The biggest negative was the lack of an extremely close conbini, the closest one is about half a mile away. The walk from Nagoya station with luggage is a little punishing in summer weather, but there are other options we just didn't take. Overall we were quite comfortable and Ghibli park was amazing.

The room was huge! The facilities in the room were all very good, except for the couch which has seen better days. Location was ok, it is nearer to Taiko-dori station than Nagoya station, so we took a taxi to get all our luggage there instead of wrangling with the stations.

I had an exceptional experience at this family-friendly small hotel managed by a friendly elderly couple. They displayed incredible kindness by allowing us to check-in at 12pm, a remarkable three hours earlier than the usual check-in time. It is rare to find such flexibility in Japan, and it made a significant difference for our group of four with multiple luggages and bags. We had initially planned to leave our belongings at the front desk and explore the city until check-in, but thanks to their empathy, we were able to settle into our room and take some time to rest after an early morning journey from Kyoto by the JR bullet train. The Deluxe Room Type B, where we stayed for two nights, was incredibly spacious. It boasted four large double beds, the largest we encountered throughout our trip in Japan. The room also featured a long coffee table surrounded by eight slim sofa chairs and a wall-mounted TV. We were amazed by its capacity to comfortably accommodate eight adults. Additionally, there was a fully equipped kitchen in a separate room, allowing me, a cooking enthusiast, to plan and prepare meals for the night and the following day. The room also included a generous shower room with bathtubs that doubled as clothes dryers, a washing machine, and a separate toilet. It truly had everything a family could need for a comfortable stay. The hotel was situated in a quieter area of Nagoya, more akin to a local residential district. Only a 4 mins walk from the metro station.Rec'd
