I don't want to dwell on what others have said, but I'll reiterate that the close proximity to two stations, both within 2 minutes walk is probably the top selling factor for this place. Now on to other matters
The Room: I chose it for the traditional aspect. I've slept in multiple 5 star hotels while travelling for work so I wanted something different. That being said, note the following
1. If you've never slept on a hard surface, you might have a hard time. A pad is provide but it is nothing close to the thickness of a Western mattress...its a pad. I don't mean this in a negative way, not at all. Again I chose this for the traditional aspect, but it took me a day to adjust before I was able to sleep better
2. I'm 6 feet flat. Once stepping onto the tatami area, I had about 2 inches clearance above my heard. If you're over 6'3+ you' d have to stoop most of the time you're in the room. Don't go throwing your hands up in the air while trying to put on your t-shirt, you'll bang them on the ceiling.
3. The room is excellent for a solo traveler. May be a tad tight for two, but if you're gone all day exploring the city, you won't be in there long enough for it to be an issue.
4. Bring your own international power outlet adapter because there isn't one here for you.
5. There is no ironing board in the room. I suggested that Daisuke get one since clothes always get wrinkled in bags when travelling.
6. The room is on the 4th floor with no elevator. If you're travelling heavy like me (2 large suitcases, a carry-on and one personal item) checking in and checking out will be a process.
7. As you walk up and down the stairs, make sure you say hello to the other tenants in the building. . Being a Coco-jin (dark-person) in Japan is not easy; these folks were kind.
8. Make sure you stop at Minmin's place (3rd floor) for a drink even if you don't drink alcohol
9. Daisuke's restaurant recommendations (and Sake bar) are both Gai-jin and Coco-jin friendly, and the food is really good. If this is your first time in Tokyo, you will quickly learn that not all places are that way.
10. If you're an adventurer who really wants to experience "living in the neighborhood" as opposed to the touristy hotel, this place is for you.
If I ever return to Tokyo, I'll come back to stay here.
Thanks Daisuke
