Friendly accommodating staff who were very helpful despite limited English. They helped us use the very small laundry facilities, moving clothes from washer to dryer and then folding them while we were out. The room (twin) was a reasonable size although the bathroom was small and basic. Beds were low to the floor but comfortable. There was no cupboard space only four hangers, so we left most items in our cases. There is no English sign for the hotel outside, so look for the long green Japanese sign. Great location for Sendai station. Breakfast is very basic, just coffee, juice, bread and boiled eggs.
