A great place to stay in Tokyo for me, who does not look for something fancy but rather something with a cultural touch. Much more better than expected!!
Really good pricing, considering you get a whole house-like place (a bedroom/living room, a bathroom, a kitchen, private access/entrance with all amenities you need) for yourself right in middle of expensive Tokyo.
Easy access to main attractions in Tokyo: you can walk to nearby attractions, or use nearby subway/bus to connect to far attractions.
Hisao-san and his wife are great hosts. Even their English is limited, they still tried their best to make me feel welcomed. Sandwiches and Japanese sweets/candies for breakfast from Hisao-wife, who's thoughtful enough to make sure first if I'm allergic to anything. Free drop off at Nipponri-station at the last day from Hisao-san, who's really kind to allow me to check out much later than the standard 12 pm (because my flight is delayed).
Recommended for everyone!
Tips for first-timers who can't speak Japanese:
-On your first day, if you decide to pick up a taxi to go to Hisao's place, copy the address in full Japanese words (the Kanji ones, NOT the Romanji ones). Maybe it's just me, but I got a problem with showing the Romanji ones to taxi-driver and he didn't understand.
-All bus/subway stops are announced in Romanji words, so just pay attention to the billboard and you will be fine. Some main stations even have English announcement, by the way.
