The location of Tomoe-san's home location was perfect for me. Walking distance about 5 minutes to the JR Yamanote line and perfect to get around to anywhere in Tokyo. I felt very safe walking back from the station, even though i returned back to her home close to midnight each day. I happened to be in Tokyo during the full bloom of the Sakura and was pleasantly surprised by the walking distance to the famous Meguro river - a long stretch of river beautifully lined with Cherry blossoms! what luck!!
Tomoe's house was very cosy and clean (with the most comfy blanket). Very very quiet at night. She was so kind to prepare lunch for me on my last day in Tokyo and it was the best meal of my entire trip!!
