The house was just like the pictures and a new nice house to stay. The stairs are quite steep so beware. However, I feel like I have stronger legs now so that's a plus! It's a little bit of a walk to Nishi Nippori but it's a great station to get around easily to many places. The parking lot was large enough to park a Jeep. The host was quick to answer any inquires and was helpful. Would recommend.
