Really good Stay, Location and Service

perfect locationhelpful stafflimited breakfast
The location allowed easy access to public transportation, restaurants and shopping. The staff was helpful. I appreciate the boulangerie and cafe next door that offered great coffee and delicious croissants. I also appreciated how proficient the staff was in English.
The breakfast buffet didn't offer many non-Japanese options. The bread was warm instead of toasted and there was no toaster available. It felt inconvenient to clear the table myself.

The hotel is near two subway stations. The subway access and proximity to main attractions made getting around so SIMPLE. A shopping area is just a short walk away.
