Hotel Oriental virgin experience checked!

A decent hop for the 2nd part of the trip and my first time trying a somewhat local Japanese hotel chain. 🍀 I knew the experience would be a step down after RC but I’m glad the property served its purpose well for what it was. The location in Nakasu Kawabata is a little off a beaten track but walking is a great way to burn off those calories! 😆 Definitely glad I paid more for a bigger space for 2pax as otherwise our luggage survive. The space is simple and thankfully clean as expected of a Japanese hotel but the color themes made the ambience feel old despite the fact that the hotel is only 3yo 🐌 The tiny gym has my fav rower which is all that mattered to me. The breakfast was also surprisingly varied and actually high quality and was a win amongst us 🍀 Service was bare bones of course and the language barrier didn’t help. PSA: their definition is “deposit” at check in is actually payment so rem to use the right card if that’s important to you 😭 Thank you trip.com for the booking ease!
