The room was spacious with a sofa bed that fitted 1 person, also a massage chair which was a lot of fun. It seems in Japan there are 2 sizes of bed, King or Queen, which are basically the same size as a USA queen, and twins, which are the size of a USA full (can accommodate 2, and perfect for 2 kids, or an adult and kid, or 2 adults of regular size). The staff were very helpful and polite,as I found all Japanese to be, and the place very clean. Small fridge, tea/coffee, and amazing view of the river - probably one of the nicest views you could ask for in Tokyo. There's a McD, and 7/11 right next door, plus about 4 restaurants, as there are office workers in the adjoining building. There isn't really any other shops or restaurants immediately around the hotel. Personally we found the convenience stores like 7/11 and family mart throughout Japan great to get things for breakfast, or a bite for lunch. There was a restaurant in the hotel, but like most hotel restaurants it was more than we wanted to pay so we didn't visit it. The only thing that would prevent some people from wanting to stay here is it's convenience to the train or subway station. It is about 10-20mins walk to Tskiji station, probably the nearest - but in the morning the walk along the river side is pleasant, and you see so much by walking so it suited us fine. To walk to the Fish market was about 10 minutes, and that is a definite must to go and visit. Personally I'd stay there again, and enjoy being made to walk a little before getting on transport, as that's when you see more of the real city, other than the tourist spots. To find a hotel room to accommodate 4, like this one, is not easy to find.
