Disliked: Cleanliness

Disappointing but fine

When we arrived, we were given a room that clearly hadn't been cleaned. There were splatters and stains all over the walls and furniture. I asked for a new room and we got given it immediately, which was great. I will say the pictures are deceiving...we had a miniscule room with a window that looked at a wall. Good location for being central.

Good hotel but must have mobility.

Whilst aware of hotel distances from the subway, one especially feels the effort of moving luggages from hotel to subway to train station. Several bus stops around hotel vicinity. Be prepared if you want to stay here. Rooms are clean, new but small. Typical of Jap hotels.
