"Hotel was clean and near a train station. There was lot of food options and right near a 7-11, family mart and Lawson store."

Piazza Hotel Nara

8/10 Good

"Overall everything was great, except the room doesn’t have a night light or floor light can leave on while you are sleeping. We left the ceiling light on in toilet while we are sleeping, but it’s too bright shine through the glass from bathroom, we didn’t get to sleep at all, that’s one thing I hope the hotel can fix it. We were enjoyed our stay, hopefully the problem can be solved, and I will bring my family and grandchildren to visit and stay again."
