Hotel is centrally-located but badly needs refurbishing
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Drinking water is not readily available. Our room was in 5th floor and we have to go all the way up to 13th floor just to get drinking water and ice which is in a dispenser. I would suggest that there should be a water dispenser available in every floor if they want to save on the cost of distributing bottled water to the rooms. Drinking water should be readily available in all rooms and should make it easier for guests to get it.

Pros:

La camera tripla era molto spaziosa per lo standard in Giappone, anche se un po' datata. Posizione ottima per chi vuole avere la metro a un passo per muoversi. La zona di sera è molto vivace e piena di locali. Staf disponibile.

Cons:

La camera non è proprio il massimo come arredo e avrebbe bisogno di un po' di manutenzione. E' l'unico hotel in Giappone dove non abbiamo trovato una bottiglia d'acqua in camera come benvenuto, niente di grave ma anche le piccole cose aiutano.

Majoitus keskeisellä sijainnilla
Pros:

Sijainti on loistava, lyhyt kävelymatka ruokapaikkoihin ja joihinkin nähtävyksiin, ruokakauppa lähellä. Junalla helppo saapua.

Cons:

Huoneet kaipaisivat remonttia, hiukan nuhruinen yleisilme. Parisänky on todella kapea edullisemmassa huoneluokassa, jouduimme pyytämään huoneluokan korotusta ensimmäisen yön jälkeen, että saadaan isompi sänky. Tätä haasteeseen emme törmänneet Tokion tai Kioton hotelleissa. Korotuksen hinnasta oli myös hiukan epäselvyyttä, kun vaihdon aikaan respasta ennakkoon saamamme hinta olikin korkeampi, kuin mitä huoneesta loppujen lopuksi tuli maksaa.
