Rooms are tiny, we had to upgrade to be able to fit our suitcase on the floor! Photos online are stretched dramatically! We also ended up covered in bites which we now believe to be bed bugs. We’ve never experienced this in any hotel before but the three of us are cover in bites all over our legs. There’s no way to prove it’s bed bugs and not mosquitoes, but we haven’t experienced this at any other location during our three week stay across Japan and would wake up itching in the night.

From the moment we walked into the Hotel, the staff were kind and courteous. We had shipped our luggage from Tokyo and it was in our room waiting when we checked in. We also stored bags with the hotel staff on check out which was a great help until our Shinkansen left. The hotel is very centrally located and everything you need is in walking distance as well as having a Metro station right out front of the hotel.
