Aside from the noisy hotel and disinterested staff, everyone i meet during my shorter than planned stay was charming, polite and helpful. Its a shame the hotel gives such a bad impression of a lovely area.

Amazing city next to the coast and undoubtsbly outside of Tsukiji’s fish market the best tasting freshly caught fish in Japan. Check out the market just before lunch and grab yourself a seat at a fish monger with stools and tables outside.
