The directions Choco sent to the apartment were really easy to follow. There was a welcome folder with directions to the convenience store, the laundry mart etc which I found helpful.
The apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood short walking distance to the Koenji station with access to Shibuya, Shinjuku, yoyogi etc. There are local eateries close to the apartment including local drinking holes.
The apartment itself is small which is typical. The loft does get hot so we opted to sleep downstairs. If you need a quiet cheap place to lay your head as you travel around Tokyo, then this place could work for you.
I didn't require much interaction with the host but he did make sure I knew he was accessible via phone or email.
Cheap/ AC/ free wifi/ convenient to train station were a huge plus for me.
Thank you Choco.
