An absolutely great experience staying at Keiko's place. One of the aspects of airbnb's vs hotels is sometimes you come across a host through whom you end up learning the local culture and values. That is exactly what me and my family experienced. We were 4 adults and 2 kids who not only had a comfortable stay at a place that was well equipped. Pretty big for the shinjuku area standards. A short walk to 2 subway stations and convenience stores. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood but 2 subway stops or a short taxi ride to the heart of shinjuku. Our host Keiko's warmth, helpful and kind nature made our stay more memorable. We came to run the Tokyo Marathon. She not only took the interest to join our families to cheer us but went out of the way to keep them engaged during our run by taking them to local shrines and made the effort to accompany our families to the finish line. She helped ship our luggage and also sent pieces of luggage that we left at her place by mistake. Thank you Keiko
