Stayed here for 8 nights and was pleased with the location and condition of the property. Very conveniently located between two major subway stations, walking distance to Nishiki market, 7 Elevens, and department stores. Only nit is that our room didn’t really have a window so we didn’t get sunlight but that’s okay as we didn’t spend much time in the room anyways. Overall it was a nice stay!
