Washington Plaza Hotels in Nara

I stayed at this hotel after mid-April. Overall, the room and service were decent. However, the air conditioning was a big disappointment. The hotel uses a centralized system, which means you can’t control the temperature yourself. Unfortunately, it was set at around 27–28°C — way too hot! It was really uncomfortable and I couldn’t sleep properly. In the end, I had to open the window just to get some cool air. I noticed that many other rooms had their windows open too — looks like I wasn’t the only one struggling! Honestly, the aircon was pretty much useless. You’re better off turning it off completely and just enjoying the fresh air from outside.
