metro station laundry room dark room window isolation
i appreciated the location near two metro stations. the elevator exit at shijo station exit 4 was close. the well-equipped laundry room was also helpful.
the room was quite dark. the window faced another building only one meter away, it was disappointing. noise levels were higher than i expected.
