Great modern hotel
(+) Convenient location to many attractions. Clean and modern rooms. Excellent showers with strong water pressure and multiple showerheads / jets. Light daily breakfast included.
(-) Laundry machines are inefficient washer/dryer combos (clothes smelled unclean after washing and did not dry even after 2 hours. Best to just use outside coin laundry if laundry is needed).

Hotel location is awesome. Walking distance to many of the prime sight seeing areas and close to subway and bus transfers. The room felt a bit sparce and was not the most comfortable. Noise travelled in the halls and the internet connection is poor. Breakfast is a light meal.

Very nice and spacious hotel rooms! If you’re on a budget, this hotel not only has a bigger space, it also has a walk in shower, that was heavenly to have. Compared to all my other budget friendly hotels in Japan, this one is my favourite one! Would recommend to anyone
