Pacific Hotel Shiroishi

If you're looking for a place to lay down for the night, it's hard to complain too much for the cost vs convenience of this hotel. Down sides is that if you're a light sleeper or taller/wider in stature, the accomodations can be pretty cramped and being right next to the JR metro doesn't help with the noise issues. However, the staff is friendly and accommodating for foreigners, doing the best they can to answer questions and provide directions to whenever you may be heading. The rooms were clean and the beds were reasonably comfortable, not too soft nor too firm. Something that is more common in some of the cheap inner city hotels like in Akihabara and Tokyo, the beds are not made of granite. Would stay again if I found myself in the area and just needed a bed for a night or two.
