So I'm reading a review and in the photos the bathroom is 100% visible w/ only a glass wall between it and the bedroom. My teens are NOT going to bathe in this situation (and frankly they may not be willing to use the toilet either) unless everyone else is out of the room. I've got 2 teens and 9 year old sharing a room and spouse and I in a second room. Is there no curtain or shutter or anything to provide privacy? Frankly, I don't really want a 100% visible bathing experience either!

What is the best (cheap) hotel door-HND transportation option? We will be staying at HRT for 3 nights however my wife will be leaving after me with 2 check in luggage. I do not think she wants to walk with them.

As nollbit suggests, from HRT to HND, Limousine Bus is by far the best (least hassle for wife) and cheapest solution.

I’m on it right now, just missed the 14:20 one by 5 minutes, however the nice counter lady suggested 14:40 going to Hilton Tokyo just across the street. It seems that cell phone usage is banned on the bus?

Talking on phones on public transportation is considered impolite in Japan. Shouldn't be a problem with texting and such.

If you want door to door, then other than taxi/Uber, your only choice is the Airport limousine, which is a bus service. It costs Y1,230 except for late night when it is Y2,000.

I can't speak for everyone of course, but for me hearing only one side of a conversation is much more mentally taxing than hearing both sides. Also, in Japan, my experience is that even talking between people (i.e. chatting, more than a few words back and forth) is avoided while commuting.

Any updates to the club house closure from July 1st?
Just read about this and I'm shocked. Family coming in from the 4th July-8th, and I really banked on the club house for bfast n drinks...
