Yoshi is a friendly and accessible host. He writes perfect English and always responses to our questions very quickly. The apartment itself might look slightly older than the photos (which is normal imagining how many guests have stayed there), but it's clean, spacious and well equipped. The location is especially good coz it's close to a major JR and Metro station, plus there are also two supermarkets and many restaurants around. I recommend Yoshi's place if you want to live in a residential area, away from the crowd, but still close enough to a major train station which takes you everywhere easily.
