Pros: clean, large rooms, beautiful view from the balconies, kitchenette allowed for saving $ by preparing our own meals, friendly staff - Cons: rundown from neglect, located adjacent to the Ueno German Village which would have been nice if it, too, hadn't suffered from neglect. Location limited you to dining at nearby expensive hotel restaurants if you wished to eat out but didn't have a car. Be aware: they're SERIOUS about room service at an additional cost. They never stepped foot inside our room, not even to remove the trash. My recommendation: Stay here if you're on a budget, but can afford to rent a car. This way you can travel to purchase groceries (a 20 min. drive away) + enjoy all that this island has to offer.
