I’ll be very fair writing this review.
Pros: Location was amazing. Very convenient place. 2 mins away from Okubo station and 7 mins away from Shin-Okubo station. Surrounded by Asian restaurants so you’ll never need to worry about your meals. The host’s response was quick. Didn’t have any communication issue in Japanese (the host is not Japanese ppl).
Cons: Couldn’t turn the light on for the entrance, kitchen. The clock on the wall wasn’t working. No knife and cutting board. The fire in the kitchen isn’t working so they put the IH cooking heater instead, that’s alright to me. But that caused me not able to use the pan (the IH heater didn’t recognize the pan therefore no heat), you can still able to use the pot tho. When I arrived the toilet was all wet, assumed they washed or something but they could have wiped it off for check in. If you are lady, you might not like the neighborhood since you have to go through the alley with brothel and motel where ppl only use it for sex. The building has no elevator. If you are unlucky, you may hear washing machine and dryer sound in the middle of the night.
Overall, my experience where was meh. I won’t go back using this place. But if you are just looking for accommodation in the great location this is a place to go. Won’t recommend long stay. It’s too small and there’s no space for you to open your big travel baggage.
