Yöpyminen huoneessa 869

Kansallisteatteri oli iltaohjelmani, lyhyt matka sinne . Rauhallinen yö nukkua. Kiva näkymä ikkunasta rautatieasemalle päin. Ihana sänky ja erikokoisia tyynyjä. Suihku hyvä kun oli ovet, märkyys pysyi siellä eikä lattia ollut märkä muualla.Tulen painamaan mieleen huoneen numeron 869 ja sen otan seuraavallakin kerralla.

朝食はとても美味しく、部屋は広くて清潔です。部屋のお風呂は広くて良いですが、浴槽から排水へ流れた水が、浴室の床に広がるためタオルで拭かなければならず、そこが残念でした。 ホテルのサウナも最高です。
