A lot of restaurant closes early nearby and there is no restaurant inside but there is a full shared kitchen area. Wifi didn’t work in the room but it did on the 1st floor. There is a shared internet/computer room separately from the room we stayed on the floor so maybe that would have worked better if I got out of my room.

I stayed for 4 nights and had a great stay. Walking distance to area sightseeing spots and shopping arcades were just around the corner. I stayed in Japanese style room and it was spacious and comfortable. People who worked there are very nice and friendly.

We absolutely loved this place. The staff were so lovely and helpful. It is perfectly located and in waking distance to all of the best spots in Nara. It was quiet, comfortable, clean and we had an amazing view of the Pagoda. Also, downstairs in the lobby area, you can learn all sorts of things like Origami. It is a real treasure this spot. There is also a hot bath area for a soak after your daytime adventures. I highly recommend this place for your stay in Nara.
