I stayed here one night on a stopover on my way back from hiking in Kiso Valley. I just wanted a clean, budget friendly hotel that was close to a train station so I could get a good night's sleep before traveling on the next day. The room was small, but for business or short-term/solo travel purposes it was great. The bathroom was clean, the bed was really comfortable and it was conveniently located near lots of restaurants, shopping and night life. There is no wifi in the rooms so bring an Airport Express to connect to the network cable.

Having stayed in more than my share of business hotels in Nagoya, this would be my pick. Great, handy location. Larger than normal rooms. Well laid out rooms. Clean, non-mouldy bathroom. Reasonable price (I got a package deal with flight for this one).

The one issue I would have is that no wi-fi in room, but they do have LAN. So if you are traveling with a tablet with no LAN connection, bad luck!

While the hotel had a lot going for it, like nearby subway, great staff, nice bathroom, and super clean everything, the biggest advantage for me was the bed. Friends at other hotels said that they all had very hard and uncomfortable beds, but the APA bed and pillows were plush and comfey, with a great duvet cover and good heat/air controls. For the price (especially as a single traveller) it'll definitely be my first pick next time I'm in Nagoya.
