Takeshi's place is a lovely traditional Japanese home. The house is co-hosted by Takeshi's sister-in-law Reiko and her husband Yuki, who live next door and provide a warm welcome. The house is two-story with 3 bedrooms upstairs and 2 living rooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom downstairs. There are two toilets also. The bathroom has a deep square stainless steel bath, which is daunting to look at, but lovely to relax in. The living areas are tatami rooms with plenty of room to relax.
The house is about 10-15 mins walk from Kinshicho Station on the JR Sobu line. There are plenty of restaurants and shops around the station area. The house itself is in mixed residential and commercial district. It can be quite noisy, especially at night. If you are used to noise, this will be fine, but if not, be prepared.
The house has all you need to enjoy a few days exploring Tokyo.
The Hanzomon subway line also runs from Kinshicho station and it is one stop to Oshiage Station - The Tokyo Skytree. This is well worth visiting. If you enjoy walking, you could walk there in under an hour. On the JR Sobu line it is 3 stops to Akihabara, the technology hub of Tokyo and from where you can travel elsewhere
