Meal was very delicious and well worth the price! You get your own room separated by curtains so you can still hear other people in the other room talking but still have some privacy eat.

I bought a premium pass and went to Nunobiki Herb Garden, Kobe Animal Kingdom, Arima Trout Pond, Kitano Ijinkan... As long as you plan your itinerary well, this pass is very cost-effective. Simply show the QR code for entry, quick and convenient.

It was a sudden trip, but I was glad that I was able to reserve tickets for the Port Tower using this app. I was glad that I was able to make reservations on the day.

I used this to do the herb garden, animal kingdom, maritime museum and mosaic wheel. (The port tower is not included) so definitely saved money. However say you only did 2 of these you'd lose money so think carefully about your plans. (Also ferry was closed on the day)

The bathroom mirror has a defog function. The room is clean. The actual view is better than the photos on the app. It is worth it for this price.
