Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Haneda Airport - Directly connected to Haneda Airport Terminal 3
We really loved this hotel and its location except we wish the bath room has a night light or an independent light switch that its power is not cut off by the master switch because we the seniors need to go to the toilet at least two times at night.
