The house is located in a rather convenient/peaceful residential area that is close to a Seibu station and walkable distance from metro station (around 10-15min walk). It has everything that is needed for a long or short stay - especially the fridge and microwave. There is a 7-11 that is 2 min away from the house where we get our breakfast from every morning, and a Family Mart along the way coming from the Higashi-Nagasaki station, making it very convenient to get some food and daily necessities. The apartment is not very soundproof - we can often hear it when people walk past the building talking, or when cars and the trains drive past. However, I was still able to get pretty good sleep with the ear plugs Haruko has kindly provided. :)
