We stayed here one of the three nights we were in Tokyo. It is about a 5-7 minute walk to the Kinshicho subway station. We got 2 rooms for the 4 of us and it cost about $120 per night per room which was decent for what we got. One room had a bath and shower and the other just a shower. The rooms are small but comfortable. We had 3 suitcases in 1 room but they fit ok. One of the things to note is that the doors to the rooms are outside similar to motels in the US. There was an elevator to the upper floors. The toilet is in its own tiny room/closet and the shower/bath is in another room. I think for us, the shower worked out better than the bath since we took a shower in the bath anyway, and in the room with the bath, the shower is supposed to be used on the floor rather than the bathtub so it was a little awkward showering in the bathtub. Great water pressure though and the heated toilet was very nice. We arrived around 10:30am and checked in but our room wasn't ready. The hotel was happy to store our luggage while we went out. In the lobby at breakfast there is some bread but we went to the nearby 7-11 to get food. There is also a drink machine where we tried the onion soup; it was interesting. One thing to note is when you check in (we booked through travelocity but didn't prepay), you are directed to an atm-sort of machine to pay and it didn't accept our credit card. We had to pay with a debit card that had a PIN number. The area where this hotel is situated is pretty quiet. Not much going on there unlike the next ryokan we stayed at.
