Great room layout for family of four.
Mimaru is a great chain for families wanting to stay in one room.
The small kitchen is nice to use when one gets tired of eating out all the time. Local department store groceries start discounting their sushi, meats and salads around 5-7pm. So eating in saves money and you get to eat like a local.
