Pros: close to ginza. Although this isn't much of a pro considering most hotels in this price range are centrally located with convient transportation.

Cons:

Noise
Shimbashi station is an above ground station. The noise isolation in this building is terrible. You WILL be able to hear the trans screeching to a halt every 30 seconds. It annoyed the hell out of me and I could not sleep.

Room
Dated is an understatement for this hotel room. Old furniture. Stained carpets. Stained linoleum and fixtures in the bathroom.

Service
The front desk staff was nice enough, but they don't seem to have a bellboy? I'd expect this caliber of a hotel to have a bellboy.

Conclusion:

We paid about as much as we did for the Cerulean in shibuya, which was a much nicer experience. Calling this place a four star hotel might be overstating things. Given the price, I'd go elsewhere.
