It was a very convenient location as the entrance to a subway station was right around the corner! There was also a family mart too that was helpful whenever we needed a snack. Communication was great with the host and she even brought over extra shampoo and toothbrushes for us! The place is definitely very small and stairs are steep but most of Japan’s buildings are like that! The bathroom downstairs may be a little difficult to use as most of our legs touched the door but other than that the space was very clean and it was a good place for the 7 of us to share. If you will be sharing with multiple people there will not be a lot of privacy. Overall we were happy with our experience !
