We are very familiar with Japan and we were looking for a nice place to stay 9 nights. We were not disappointed as Taeko’s place is located in one of the nicest ans busiest Tokyo neighborhoods close to 3 subway stations. The owner welcomed us outside when he saw the taxi arriving! The place is spacious, very clean, well equipped (kitchen, washing machine) and extremely quiet (we slept very well despite the jet lag). The extra separate bedroom is a rare feature and convenient for friends or kids. There are plenty of restaurants in the area and a few convenience stores very close when you just want to eat at “home”. The owners live upstairs but the place they rent is independent and you rarely see them, except when you need help or when they come to clean or provide new towels. They are both very nice and we were almost sad to leave them after our long stay. Hard to find a better place in Tokyo, highly recommended.
