Excellent hotel, typical Japanese with immaculate cleanliness and condition. Room is fairly large and could fit 3 large men comfortably. Each room has an assigned service attendance, ours spoke 4 languages! Japanese, English, Cantonese and Chinese! Very attentive to details and made our stay very enjoyable.
