I didn’t enjoy the Airbnb I think the pictures are misleading and it was expensive for what it was. I’m not sure if the other units were cleaner or people just paid way less and didn’t expect much since all the other reviews seemed okay, which is why I booked. I stayed at other places in Tokyo and prefer those much better. My cousin who is a local said I overpaid.
- The windows, window curtains, and walls were very dusty and dirty. There are small holes in the wall. Hangers were rusty. Bathroom vent was full of layered dust.
- Dividers do not completely close so you can peek into the other bedroom.
- Ceilings are very low in between rooms. I was 2 inches from the top and my husband had to duck to get from room to room.
- There is NO hot water in the bathroom sink when you get ready. I used the kitchen sink to wash my face and get ready.
- Hot water was not consistent.
- Towels were old and some were yellow.
- Washing machine shakes the whole apartment. Walls and floors are very thin so even walking sounds like stomping.
- The ad listing explicitly said comfy beds. These beds were mattress beds, but old and not comfortable to us.
On the plus side, location was convenient.
I learned my lesson to screen more carefully for next time.
