citylikeyou — DDD HOTEL — Tokyo by Lyla Lee

Tokyo / Hotel / Gallery / Cafe

Staying with DDD, a renovated boutique hotel introduced me to the Nihonbashi area where there is full of beautiful contrast between historic and modern cultures. Really enjoy the convenience of the location. The room is electrically designed that is so warm and cozy. The in-house gallery and cafe are also worth checking!
