Places We Stay : Toyoko Inn - Kawasaki

Places We Stay : Toyoko Inn Akita.

Apart from Toyoko-Inn in Asakusa and Akita, we also spent a night at Toyoko-Inn Kawasaki. Last year, we spent the night in Kawasaki at Nikko Hotel and had wanted to stay at Nikko Hotel again but the rate was a tad high because we had waited until the last minute to make the reservation. So, Toyoko-Inn became our choice for Kawasaki.

Again, there are several Toyoko Inns in Kawasaki snd the Toyoko-Inn Kawasaki we chose is located nondescriptly away from the hustle and bustle of Kawasaki Station, with about 7 minutes walk from the east exit of JR Kawasaki Station. We actually had a bit of problem finding the hotel at first.

We got there a bit too early for check-in so we just left our bags there before heading out again for sightseeing. See that two machines in the photo above?

This hotel has no staff manning the reception at night so for those wishing to get a room late at night, they can do so by using the vending machine. A vending machine for hotel booking - cool, eh?
 
The dining area. It has a humungous TV here for diners to watch while enjoying their meal. And also a big coffee/tea machine for guests to enjoy for free. I like free stuff. LOL
Our room was interestingly located outside the hotel corridor.
Our room for the night. This hotel even has a pantry area in each room.
The next day, we went down quite late to have breakfast. Unlike most Toyoko-Inn chains, this hotel only provides minimal amount of bread for guests. Lucky for us as we were able to get the last three bread left in those bread baskets. That and with cups and cups of coffee for me and green tea for Raimie and Zaini were all we had for breakfast that day.
