Location is very convenient for visitors to the University of Tokyo. It is definitely old school, with having to hand in your room keys at the front desk. More seriously, your room door needs to be manually locked when you leave. Room was reasonably clean, but run down. My shower head was mounted at a height that was suitable for perhaps someone under 5 feet tall. Speaking to other guests, it would seem that some of the rooms have been renovated more recently. Breakfast buffet had a good variety of food, if the quality was somewhat lacking.
