If you are looking for Japanese style of hospitality “Omotenashi”, Mimaru is definitely not your choice. Employment of foreign staff and western style of management made me felt like staying in Leonardo Hotel in Manchester. Wifi was poor especially at night. Luggage storage is usually free in Japan. But Mimaru will charge you 500 yen per luggage each day. Stayed there for 7 days and six nights. Our beds were only made up once until I made the request in person. Strangely their staff will knock on your door around 9 am every day asking if a room make up service is required. Why not simply let us have a sticker to place outside the room like other hotels normally do? The washing machine is a nightmare. You have to spend 6 to 7 hours to do washing (4 hours to run a wash and dry cycle and another 2 hours for drying cycle to make the clothes cupboard dry). The 2 stars I gave is for the good location and delicious eateries nearby as well as a nice working place for the laidback jobseekers.

Very happy with our stay here! This accommodation is very baby/child friendly, they provided a baby crib free of charge and also had a bottle steriliser which were able to make use of for the duration of our stay. They also did some baby proofing to the room which was appreciated. Location was great and we were able to walk to all necessities and quite a few attractions. Would stay with MIMARU again
