We (family with 2 children) stay for 7 days in Sohei place in October 2018. He is an artist who is friendly, skilled, and very attentive to his customers.
What you read here is only a positive value from us, because for us, Sohei's hospitality closes all the shortcomings of this place. And we are not a picky person either.
Positive:
1. Close to 2 stations and 1 bus station. You can go anywhere easily.
2. Around the house is a combini store; 711, family mart, esbi. You can get it when you go home to buy food or buy snacks when you want to go.
3. Spacious rented space than average house in Japan.
4. Clean
5. Complete all daily needs provided by the host.
6. Bunk beds are available where my children really enjoy it. There's a sofabed too.
7. There is a washing machine
8. There is super fast wifi
9. Yasaka elementary school view is worth more in the morning.
10. There is hot water for showering and washing dishes.
11. Close to some interesting places such as Higashimurayama Coen Park, where you can take your children to play during the afternoon or at the morning.
12. Close to the Tokorozawa aerospace museum (only 5.5km by bicycle).
13. There are many restaurants on one of the stations, namely Kumegawa station.
14. The host also has a bicycle that you can use to shop around or just shop at the store combini.
15. The most impressive is the projector that can make you watch movies like home cinema. Free movies with the host's Netflix account.
There are many other things that will be too long to mention. But for sure, my family and I really enjoyed this room and everything in Higashimurayama and Yasaka. I will definitely return here when we go to Japan again.
Thanks Sohei and Raji!
