This place was AMAZING! It's situated in a quiet neighborhood close to schools so it's pretty quiet except when the kids go to school(which doesn't bother me at all). The apartment is a nice 1K (1 bedroom and a kitchen) There is a washing machine in the sink/bathroom which is convenient. Even though the apartment was small, I think if it was bigger it would be too much. I would recommend only two people stay here, three people will be uncomfortable unless it is a couple and a single person. We had all the kitchenware we needed, we didn't have to buy anything like glasses or plates! We ended up cooking some meals, which saved some money to buy more souvenirs! We had easy access to the apartment so we could come and go as we please! I would recommend exploring the neighborhood, but please be respectful and keep your voice low as this is a reserved and polite society. It's very family friendly and a short 8 minute walk to the station. (DAITABASHI is closer than SASAZUKA) On the way to the station we enjoyed stopping by the convenience stores on the way up to the station and on the way back to the apartment. It was raining a bit while we were staying here, it was nice to be under an awning at the apartment to get our bearings before we walked through the front door. Shohei was really nice! He showed us how to use the sofa bed and told us to let him know if we had any questions. There are also some dinner places up and down the walk to and from the station. We decided to eat at one and it was great! Check out was a breeze! Would definitely stay here again!
