The B has been my main stay for the past 12 years. It has great access to food and shopping and easy transport by train or subway. And the area is more quiet than other touristy spots like Shinjuku and Ueno.

Great business hotel
Great stay for a business trip. Breakfast was good, although the menu was exactly the same every morning. It would have been nice to have some variety after my 3rd night there. Overall great and would stay again.
