We had great time at the hotel. Staffs were very responsive and helpful. The room is more spacious than expected and the subway/ bus stops at surrounding area makes it super easy to get around. Breakfast is also delicious. Highly recommended.

Staff was extremely nice, amenities were self serve so no unnecessary/wasted ones in our room, spacious room, bed extremely comfortable, decent breakfast buffet. Only minus was the cleanliness was lower than at other japanese hotels. The room's side tables were not well wiped down and were a little sticky along the sides. We also found a cockroach in our room our first day. Yes we had open snacks in the room, but we were on the 6th floor so it didn't come in off the street...

The windows overlooked an outdoor stairwell and I had to have a manager open a window a crack for me as they are locked. They force you to have the room cleaned even if it’s not convenient. It’s a basic hotel and I wouldn’t recommend to anyone.
