I stayed at Min's place together with 6 friends, for two weeks in February/March. I really like the host, Min, and his sharehouse. This is the second time I'm staying here, the last time being in 2014.

For this trip he had done some redecoration. We had a big room for ourselves for 7 people, with new furniture and new air condition. Anyone who has stayed in Japan for the winter knows that it can get pretty damn cold in the Winter indoors. The new AC managed to cope with this though, and we had a very cozy feeling in the room.

I would say that the size of the room is perfect for 6 people, but it could handle us 7 with no problem. The location is great, walking distance from Shinjuku station, which means walking distance to other stations and most central train-lines. The other guests at the different floors have always been nice and interesting, this time being no exception. The kitchen-area of the sharehouse becomes a natural place to kick it back for a while to hang out.

Min, the host, is very helpful and positive. He gladly comes with suggestions on where to go etc, just great. This is pretty much the perfect place to stay in Tokyo, unless you have a hard time with a hostel-kind of place.
