Clean room, has all kinds of amenities, safe and secure, close to downtown. Only that the noise control is rather weak. But indeed a 5 star experience!

One of my favorite stays on our Japan trip. Emion was welcoming as soon as you walked through the door. Room was clean and spacious with a great shower and 7-11 is right at the lobby. Walking distance from train station. Would definitely return as the staff were welcoming as well.
