"This is the second time I've stayed here and it was wonderful. I love being in the station, close to the train lines and great restaurants. The room was spacious for two people and very clean. We were lucky to be on a floor with the laundry machine and didn't have to fight to use it, but there was only 1 machine on the floor so watch out. Great place, will probably always stay here when in Sendai."
