Hotel JAL City Sendai

Location was manageable from train station for two seniors even with the rain. Breakfast addition was worthwhile. Rooms are older but well maintained and clean. Standard Double room was ok for two with one suitcase. We encountered problems from check in: someone listed room under my middle name so it took quite awhile to locate and resolve. Also room description on reservation for second room showed washer/dryer but was there was none in room. Manager tried to explain it should be hair dryer but picture showed washer. After looking into it I found that it was not the hotels error. Expedia listed w/d when i reserved room via them. Another issue was that the hotel overcharged me for taxes but credit to them as they found error and made the adjustments.

Very nice hotel within easy walking distance to the Station and numerous restaurants and shopping centres.

I went as a solo traveller with little Japanese language skills and found it a pleasant stay.

The place was quite convenient maybe a 7 to 10 minute walk from Sendai Station. But the bathroom was covered in mold on the wall ceiling and floor. We only stayed one night and we didn’t see it till later that evening so there wasn’t much we could do about it, but I did let the front desk man know When we left.
