Kyoto/Sakura are worse. At least on Ginza the waiting room is out of the way of traffic and the lights are dimmed. In Sakura the waiting room is at the Junction between the entrance and all the rooms.

Also, at Ginza they tell you to go to the room if the girl is ready to come for you. At Sakura you're waiting in the lobby for the girl to come and announce herself to pick you up.
