A few additional tips: (courtesy of 8Tracks):
Arriving via Tokyo Station can be confusing and Google Maps didn't help while inside. Search for the Yaesu South Exit and once outside it will be a short walk to the hotel. (We came out on the Marunouchi side and Google kept directing us to go back inside, but I hadn't yet quite figured out how to navigate through the station without a ticket. We ended up walking around the north end of the station.)
Metro/Subway: The Kyobashi stop on the G/Orange/Ginza line is next door (past grocery/liquor store heading toward Ginza). If you take the escalator down you will find a shop that will sell unlimited 24/48/72 hr. (72hr=1500 Yen) metro passes for those carrying a foreign passport (you will need to show yours). Some metro connections may require walking up to 500 meters, so I'd recommend walking to/from the Takaracho station on the A/Rose/Asakusa if doing so avoids a transfer.

Adding on to what others have posted...
I had also asked in my email for a complimentary upgrade and upon check-in I was told that I had been assigned a King Deluxe on the Third Floor (picture attached).
The room was about what you would expect for a Tokyo business hotel; cozy and functional. I was happy that the bathroom in my room didn't have the raised floor that some have reported.

When I try to make a booking I can only see Double or Queen rooms (both 204sqft) and the larger rooms all have 2 twin beds (Deluxe and Corner rooms)
Thanks!

I had to book via Concur so I don't recall the room class, but I am sure it was the cheapest/lowest one available.

I think Tokyo Station by far. Ginza is older and the rooms aren't any bigger from what I remember. Unless you're there to shop, I'd rather be at Tokyo Station off the JR line with more travel options.

Does anyone have experience with the size of the corner room 2 "twin" beds? From the looks of the very helpful video posted, it looks like the "twin" beds are bigger (i.e., wider) than the standard US twin beds, though probably not as big as standard US double beds.
I ask because I have young-ish kids and they are small enough so that these "twin" beds might actually work out for us. (I've already separately emailed the hotel asking about max occupancy issues with children and it doesn't seem like that will be a problem. It is more what we are comfortable with in terms of sleeping arrangements.)
Thanks.

CY Tokyo Category changes?
When I booked the CY Tokyo station back in June it was category 6. Now both the CYs in Tokyo are category 7. 
were there more category change announcements that I missed? Didn't see it on the March list.

The other CY has been a 7 since last year. TS did an unannounced change from 6 to 7. If your reservation was made prior to the switch to 7 they'll honor the Cat 6 redemption.
Cheers.
