Location: Pro. 2 train stations (different lines) pass by the hotel. Many small shops and restaurants are withing walking distance. Con: Driving there is a bit difficult, and the secondary parking lot is about a 5 minute walk away from the hotel.
Hotel: Pro. The restaurant was satisfying and not too overly priced. There is a public bathhouse on the first floor. It's very basic, so don't expect an "Onsen" experience. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Con. The beds are standard size, so if you are thinking of sharing a bed, get a larger bed or another bed. The room was a bit cramped, but ergonomic.
