Located in a quiet residential neighborhood, my son and I found the room tranquil with comfortable beddings and traditional Japanese floor along with modern shower and calming lighting. Staff were friendly and helpful with all our needs. I left a jacket behind which they will help me to ship it back home to the States. I highly recommend this hotel.
