"I chose this hotel because of its reputation as an old-school establishment, but I was a little disappointed.
1. I have a permanent residence in Japan, so it's understandable that the front desk would ask for my residence card. However, they also insisted on making a copy of my ID, which no other hotel in Japan has ever done, and I found that quite perplexing.
2. There were still hairs from the previous guest stuck to the shampoo bottle in the bathroom, which is simply unacceptable. I wanted to ask the front desk about it, but I was too tired in the evening to even bother.
3. On the bright side, the breakfast was quite good and varied, and the window seats offered a nice view of the city."
