10/10 Excellent
"Very nice hotel, lots of helpful staff at check-in, even if you don't speak Japanese. Super nice rooms: clean, modern, AC works well, comfortable bathing, in shower shampoo, conditioner, body wash. Like most hotel rooms in Japan, the space is super compact, not a lot of room for our carry-on suitcases, never mind a full sized one. We had a package shipped to us and the staff hand-delivered it to our room promptly. Walking distance easily from nearest subway stop. Easy walk to busy district, walkable to baseball stadium. We walked 15" to an old book district. Safe area. We had dinner buffet at the hotel restaurant; it was pricy, and maybe bc we were there close to closing, I was a little underwhelmed by some of the food, but that's been my experience with most hotel restaurants. I'd look elsewhere for dinner."
