Thank you Asako san for the stay ! it was my first Airbnb experience oversea and I love it !
here's what I really love about this place.
-The place is really clean and organized, really makes me feel welcome and at home
-the location is only 1 mins walk away from subway station making it perfect to travel around (though it's not right at middle of tokyo but traveling wasn't really a big deal since it doesn't take that long)
-the respond is quick and thoughtful, asako san will respond quickly and help you if you need
-Asako san prepared a flipflop for us to change in the room. We went there during winter and the flipflop save us from a freezing cold floor, so that was very kind and thoughtful for her to prepare for us. Thank you ! :)
-all the necessities were prepared so that really reduce our need to packed things. especially pocket wifi, I really love it. thank you (if you bring it out during morning, it usually runs out at around 7pm )
-the bed is perfect (except pillow(personal preference))
Here's what I think can be improve !
- we checked in as 5 guest but the pillow and towel were only for 4 so it was slightly deficient for that. (not that we mind since the price was reasonable, just maybe miscommunicate)
-the bed can take comfortably 4 people but if you squeeze, it could go up to 5. There is also sofa so in theory you could have 6 people in there. (though I would recommend 4-5 for comfortable stay)
-The rules regarding stay were pretty clear and manual was really useful. though as i'm not japanese, i'm not really aware of how to handle the trash. (dont get me wrong, i'm actually at fault here because asako san's manual state pretty clear about seperating trash into recycle able (can, plastic bottle and glass bottle) and everything else, I'm just overly paranoid and didn't want to cause trouble for her so I wish there is a very clear labeled trash in the room) this part is really my fault. I just got stressed about it before leaving so this is only a suggestion.
-The room was slightly smaller than expected so we had little trouble packing things. (our bags were big though, at hip size and we came in 5 so it's only natural to find it little cramping. we could open the bag entirely but it would take the whole hall way) with that being said even if the bag is open. you could still walk around the room freely so not a big deal.
-oh the pillow is a little too soft and thin, this is personally preference but I love thicker pillow, other than that all the bedding is perfect, i could ask for any better bed and pillow.
-oh and lastly, the rule state that we mus not use the extra blanket or towel in the cabinet. I think it's the one on the shelf we got quiet confuse and almost use it many time (as we have 4 people and was in sufficient ) so may be kept it somewhere out of sight or labeled them would make it easier to spot.
Personal message to Asako san
