Mifuneyama Rakuen Hotel

As I tried to book the hotel two weeks in advance of the check-in date, and as a solo traveller, I had no other option but a very small room (8-tatami) with no view. And the hotel has no elevator and I literally needed to climb up two flights of stairs carrying my luggage. Perhaps it's because I do not speak Japanese, the front desk staff was not very welcoming. While my purpose of choosing to stay at this hotel was for the teamLab art exhibitions, I was disappointed that I was not given related information at the front desk. It was when I tried to find the way to the garden and asked another staff about the information that I was given a hotel map showing the location the teamLab art exhibitions. I had difficulty to understand why the hotel does not display clearer information. I know the summer exhibition at the garden is a much stronger attraction, but there would be tourists like me who come at winter time and who are interested in the teamLab exhibitions. While I do like the teamLab art exhibition, if judging the hotel by itself, I would say it is very average. The room is tiny and I would rather pay more for a bigger room with a view. Food quality and service of the front desk is very average.

TeamLabo was quite enjoyable, very enjoyable!
