Rooms convenient - no view. Amenities - ok wifi - ok breakfast - you can choose set from fix menu and other items such as salad etc. are in bar self service. Not good value compare to other places we been.

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!
