My 1st choice in Tsukuba!
This is the second time I stay here. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The location makes it easy for me to walk to get breakfast. The mall is also a short walking distance.

Walkable to station, restaurants, clean room and friendly staff. The only minus point is the bed mattress is too soft…

Nice hotel, no frills (rooms are basic and small), but very enjoyable. Paid for breakfast, and it was quite good. Very close (5 min by walk) from Tsukuba station. Several stores nearby.

Pleasant and quiet place
The twin room for two was very accommodating for my friend and I. The bathroom facilities are very clean, and spacious. Moreover, the staff was quite friendly and they provided a very pleasant stay for us. I requested a quiet room, and they fulfilled this as well

Good to stay
The room's cozy, but clean and comfortable. The neighborhood is helpful to stay, including shoping malls, interseting local stores, parks, and 24 hour-open super market. I would stay again, if I visit Tsukuba again.

Nice hotel, but further away than stated
The app says the hotel is 2 minutes from the station, their website says so too. The main building is, but Epochal is a 10 minute walk from the station. Staff are very helpful and friendly, and the area around both buildings is great.

Nice hotel except very stale air in the room.
Overall, it was a nice stay.
The location is convenient for conferences. However, the walk to the bus station is a little far. 10 minutes walk is OK under nice weather, but too much for hauling luggages in the cold rain. Taxi is a way to go, but not many were around.
Non smoking room still smells smoke. The air could get stale very soon after closing windows. The bathroom was nice to have a standard washlet.
Staff was very friendly. They offered shuttle services between Epochal building and the main building.
