Shu's place is really clean, modern, and very urban. If you can figure out the train system, Shin-Okubo Station or even Okubo station is actually even closer to this location compared to the massive (and somewhat confusing) Shinjuku station. In fact, if you have luggage, Okubo station has an escalator and the road to Shu's place from there is pretty smooth, which is great for rolling suitcases. But once settled, Shin-Okubo station was super ideal since its only 1-4 stops or so to get around to Shinjuku, Harajuku, Ebisu, Shibuya, Yoyogi park, all the main big places to go around without having to switch lines (and saves you money and confusion when getting oriented!). Shu's place is really central and after staying in 2 other places in Tokyo prior to Shu's airbnb, we really appreciated being so centrally located at Shu's place and had the option of easily walking home if the trains stopped running. Very spacious for such an urban location (there's a living room and a bedroom with a large closet!) considering Tokyo's typically tight living. Of course, true to Tokyo style, the toilet had a Star Trek Jean-Luc Picard Captain's chair with control panel buttons and an LED lit up sink with automatic everything!
