Oriental Hotel Universal City
部屋はとても清潔で綺麗でしたが、バスタブの水垢やカビが目立っていたのが残念です。 また、レストランの女性スタッフに、髪の毛が長かったり、簡易的やクリップで留めてあるだけで飲食を扱う身だしなみには不適切な気がします。

Hotel Nikko Kansai Airport
Lovely welcome from the staff , but the room was very basic and I could hear the busy road outside and the planes taking off. I guess the price reflected this. The restaurant was over priced for the food it was offering. Lucky I only needed to stay one night.
