Although a small space, Toshi has made his apartment very comfortable and homely. The lighting and the comfortable bed dictate this. Extremely close to Shin-Nakano station, although just off the main street means you’re both connected and have the ability to recluse into a quieter spot after a long day of Tokyo’s hustle.
The bathroom is very tight, however as 6ft1 this was going to be an issue in most apartments across Japan.
Very local area. The hip Koenji suburb not too far away, and the interesting Nakano precinct just around the corner. If you want a more local experience of Tokyo than staying around touristy Shinjuku or Shibuya, Toshi’s place is perfect.
