Hiroshima Intelligent Hotel Annex — Hotel in Hiroshima

Milk and snacks and alcohol etc all available at two 7eleven corner stores very close. but all clean and functional. no evening meal in hotel but several cheap eating places within a couple of minutes walk eg open-air evening dining on the riverside or japanese versions of "fast food" ie much better than...
