Pros:

Easy to find, new, fresh, and very walkable to 100's if not 1000's of restaurants and stores.
Accommodation of our bags when we arrived early was so very kind and appreciated.
Pricing was Exceptional value. 2 rooms for 2 nights for the same cost of a 1 night stay in Hakone. We will return.

Pros:

A nice solid business hotel that's close to a train/metro station.

We did find that the rooms were a bit on the small side for the family, and that it's quite hard to eat together in the room without causing a mess. That said, the room was clean and comfortable.

Pros:

We read reviews previously so prepared how to check in by ourselves on I pod however walking into to no one at desk was wired. Room was very small for family of 4 and feel clamped to open suitcases. A couple of pillow cases had stains. There was a sign on the table @ do not vomit. My daughter was so shocked. There was old vomit stain on the hallway. It was cheap but we wouldn’t do it again.

Pros:

【良かった点】
・お手頃な価格で宿泊できる。
・設備が新しくてきれい。
・ベッドとバスタブが大きい。


【気になった点】
・エレベーターが1基しかないのでなかなか来ないときがある。

【総評】
とてもコスパの良いホテルだと思います。今回は車で行ったのですがたまたま近くのコインパーキング(1,000円/24h)が1台分空いていたので良かったです。そこが満車だと遠くか高いパーキングに停めることになります。
