Even as Phil had no complaints
about the quality of his room or the property in general, he
was not impressed with the hip roof additions to the building's
facade.
Based on Phil's pictures,
the guest buildings were gutted rendering them hojo-less. The
photos show that the rooms were extended onto the balconies with
the sliders replaced by the small windows--it's just wrong and
looks hideous!
