Sanada Treasure Museum

The location is excellent, right across the street from Shinagawa Station with good dining options in close proximity. Our 35th floor corner room had a great view. On the other hand, the room and facilities are showing their age, with a dingy, outdated unit bathroom and well-worn 1980s-90s vintage furnishings and small beds. Neither contemporary nor classic vintage, just old. Definitely overdue for an update. Our biggest disappointment, however, was that the hotel wanted to charge us 7,000 yen per adult and 4,000 yen per child (a total of 18,000 yen or about $112 for the 3 of us) to use the pool. With plans to swim for only about an hour, that steep fee would not have been a good use of money. So although we had changed into swimwear and hiked all the way down to the pool, we had to pass. Not a good experience for paying guests of the hotel. It’s almost as if the management wants to discourage people from using the pool. So location aside, this hotel punches below its weight.

The surrounding was less exciting, less central

Very small room with no TV Also the room was facing the railroad and while insulation is pretty good, you still hear the train noise Just be aware
