Location is convenient. Although pretty sure I overpaid for this hotel. The average price for the Agora chain is $70CAD…

Crowded and busy, but that’s because it is a good place to stay. In a quiet neighborhood but convenient for catching buses, accessible to other areas. The rooms were fine, clean, quiet. The staff was very nice and helpful though a little overworked with so many customers

Everything about the hotel was excellent, except the beds. They are described as “twin”, which a reasonable person would consider suitable for two people, however they are only a single size. Perhaps that’s a Japan thing but it’s not clear when booking. Even though we booked a room for 2 x adults and 2 x children, and paid an “additional guest fee”, the bedding was inadequate.

We stayed here for one night. The room was small but clean and functional. The location is really good, easy access to main tourist attractions by city bus and lots of restaurants nearby I stayed in twin room with me and two not-so-young kids, since it let me book it, I thought their twin beds were more like full size, but it really was a room with two twin beds. We pushed the two beds together so it worked, but I should’ve booked a room with more/larger beds. Overall our stay was good.

Great Place, the only problem I had was I couldn't sleep at all... it was too hot, in our room. I had to get up every 30 minutes or so to turn back on/down the AC, for some reason, it kept going to 28 and wouldn't stay below that for more than 30 mins to an hour. I don't think I could stay again during the summertime.
