Best location! Just a 2-3 minute walk from the east exit of Kanazawa Station to catch the two loop buses to the city attractions or highway buses to Shirakawa-go, Takayama etc. Also just across the street from 6-floor shopping mall with plenty of shopping and dining! Would definitely stay here again!

Great value for a stay in Kanazawa. The room itself is small, but has everything you need, a table, a desk, and some storage areas. The room was clean, and we received fresh towels every day, even though we didn't request them! A great location, about 200m from Kanazawa station.
