Great Option for staying close to the Train Station.
Pros:

Location was perfect for accessing busses, subway, and trains. Lobby area was very nice. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great - restaurant was very nice, breakfast selection of both Japanese and Western Foods was fantastic.

Cons:

The rooms are starting to get a little run down. Our room had small rips in the wallpaper and marks on the walls. There was mold around the air conditioning vent (picture attached). We had a large balcony that we could not use - no outdoor furniture and the glass panels had not been cleaned in a very long time. (picture attached).
