Pros:

La ubicación era perfecta, muy cerca de la estación de metro y de muchos sitios de interés.
La habitación bastante amplia en comparación con la media japonesa.

Cons:

Lo reservamos con desayuno sin darnos cuenta que consistía en una caja con una mezcla de vegetales y productos fríos ( de nevera) , sin opción a nada más. Al final tuvimos que desayunar fuera. Si lo llegamos a saber nos habríamos ahorrado el coste del desayuno.

nice hotel in great spot.
Pros:

large room with very comfortable beds, very clean, amazing shower and all in a great location (walking distance to everywhere we wanted to be). many small restaurants and eateries in the area. and all that for a great price. we would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

you cannot look out of the windows as they are frosted. for smokers: there is a smoking booth in the hotel, but it is extremely small.

BUONA POSIZIONE MA SPORCO
Pros:

Posizione perfetta

Cons:

La pulizia della camera lasciava molto a desiderare. Abbiamo trovato un unghia finta a terra e quando abbiamo chiesto di pulire la stanza ci hanno detto che l avrebbero fatto e poi non l hanno fatto. I cuscini e il letto SCOMODISSIMI
