The location was great! In a quiet neighbourhood, and only a five minute walk to the nearest station which would get you to the main Shinjuku station in ten minutes. The space was compact but ok for two people maximum. There is bedding for three or four but two people is a squeeze. The wifi would be quite temperamental, it would cut in and out continually. If a good nights sleep is what your looking for the walls here are quite thin and you can hear the television from the neighbour next door quite well in the middle of the night and each and every bump from movements in the rooms outside. Cooking amenities were great, basic gas stove and sink. However the place was lacking plates among the smaller things, and only possessed bowls and a preparation board to eat from. Not all our meals could be eaten out of a bowl for us western travellers. The loft at the top of the ladder possesses a mattress to sleep on, however we could not utilise this due to the amount of heat in the room that would rise to the ceiling, even with the air con on all the time. We stayed here in late September. So we chose to sleep on the single bed. The mattress in this bed has a large dip in the middle causing one of us to slide uncomfortably into it in our sleep. We ended up having to utilise the smaller mattresses in the room, on the bed in addition to the original mattress to try to correct this. Multiple stains were found on bed linens upon arrival and a lot of hair from previous guests didn’t make for a pleasant sight for a weary tired traveller. The price is affordable but should not reflect the above, it is economy accommodation as the host outlined to us but this should not mean that some of the even basic things are sub par.
