Well. LapLap beat me to it, but I'll put in my two cents too:

Let's pick a point that represents "prime" entertainment / shopping in Ginza ... I suggest the Wako department store. From Mitsui Ginza Hotel, it's 600m. That's 7 minutes walk.
From MO it's 2km. 25 minutes walk.
If the MO used that 10 minute estimate in a real estate listing, they would get into trouble for misleading advertising.

Hey. I don't have a problem with the suggestion that a different area is better. Just be up front about what you're suggesting - it's a different area - and let the OP make an informed choice.
