Excellent property

KOKO HOTEL Sendai Kotodai Park
A bit overpriced for what it was. I’ve spent less before at other hotels that had more to offer. This was not much more than a standard business hotel. Overall it is a nice place. Nothing special. No vending machines or water coolers. Smoking area is out back by the service entrance.

Smile Hotel Sendai Kokubuncho
Staff interaction was minimal. Check in/out was easy. Space/amenities were adequate. Location was excellent for my dining and excursion needs. Unfortunately, it appears my room had bedbugs, which is going to make the next few days uncomfortable, assuming I didn't carry away hitchhikers.
