Be aware of service fee at bar on 14th floor

Rooms were very small and beds were too hard. Hard to sleep. Hotel is beautiful and food at buffet was excellent. Service charge at bar on top floor was too much $$$ and we didn't know about it as it is in very small print and we should have been told we would be charged that extra fee per person. Staff is excellent and friendly.

- relatively big rooms for Japan, enough space for luggage - balcony has great view of the port area - friendly and helpful staff - shuttle bus to Sannomiya station every 20 minutes, might be full at checkout times - nice lobby - reasonably priced dinner buffet - small Family Mart inside the hotel, Starbucks right outside - renovation would be appropriate - shower in the bathtub - travellator goes up to the lobby on the 3rd floor, but not down, have to use stairs or the hidden elevator to the parking garage - on the weekend youngsters will bring their tuned cars and motorbikes to the area in front of the hotel, so it can get a bit loud (but never unsafe)
