Best location! Just a 2-3 minute walk from the east exit of Kanazawa Station to catch the two loop buses to the city attractions or highway buses to Shirakawa-go, Takayama etc. Also just across the street from 6-floor shopping mall with plenty of shopping and dining! Would definitely stay here again!
