My stay at Ichino san’s guest house was perfect! It was almost a three month stay. It became a second home for me and I would still consider it to be in home away from home in Tokyo. He’s the best host you could come across. Friendly, ever so courteous, proactive and went out of his way to make my stay comfortable.
I would highly recommend it, works well for both long or short term stays. Its location is great, being in a residential alleyway, but with eateries and transport option a short walk away. The room is very spaciaous and the stain glass paintings that adorn the large windows gives the room a unique character.
Ichino san has a good working command of English so for a none Japanese speaker it’s easy. Being a teacher himself, Ichino san is ever willing to impart knowledge and I was generous recipient of Japan language lessons and the weekend bicycle rides visiting sights around Tokyo.   Best wishes to you Ichino San (& Hikaru) I will always cherish my stay at the Nezu
