I arrived at Kan's place on the 13th of May. I met Kan in Kyoto station; he was there when I get out of the bus. He then proceed to take us to his place with taxi which he paid for.
As a host, Kan was very accommodating. The room was cozy and the toilet is clean. There's even a hand sanitizer in the room. There's a refrigerator in every room. There's also a microwave, oven, water dispenser, and a stove if you want to cook something in the kitchen. There's also a supermarket nearby.
The host can speak mandarin and Japanese, but he could also speak English. There's free WiFi in the room
The place is in the heart of the Tokyo; everything is within reach. The place is also not hard to find.
Overall, I'd definitely recommend staying at this place. Note that the room is a little bit cramped, but since it's only the two of us, we fit just fine.
