Koshio was very nice and helpful all the way. The area was peaceful and you get quickly used to the walk from the house to the station (about 10 minutes). The locals were all very kind and helpful. A bit far from the "city center" but Tokyo is a big city, but relatively close to big cities like Shibuya and Shinjuku (direct train). Many things to see in the area on the other side of the station that is nearby! Only downside was that there was no kitchen in the home, but Koshio let us know of this before we traveled.
