Hotel that in the middle of shopping street

Location is excellent ( I was confused by GPU guidance)! Yes, it’s in the middle of Japanese shopping street, therefore, I parked my car outside of the shopping street/ area. Bigger room than usual, good breakfast selection, friendly staffs, convenience shopping distance, and lots of lunch/ dinning options around it. Definitely recommended!
