Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were more spacious than other places I've stayed in Japan, which was great for my family, but they tended to be very warm, almost to the point of feeling overheated. While one bed was comfortable, the rollout loveseat was not ideal. The hotel itself is quite big with great amenities and a nice bathroom with a tub.

I found the hotel's location to be incredibly convenient, near Nagano Station and with efficient centralized ventilation in the rooms. While the room size was typical for Japanese standards and had a bed pushed up against a wall, it worked well for my family.
