What a smart home! Well, this was the first Japanese home I stayed in, and the room is much warmer than it appears in photos. It's right next to Toshi's and his other roommate, but this time he was away on business. Still, he checked in with me at least once a day during my stay. This spot is immaculate, also nicely designed, with massive, extremely clean sinks, super smart washing machine, spacious kitchen. Only thing is I had to cover my shadeless window with a throw b/c of bright street lights at night and blazing sun in the morning. Toshi might've been gone, but his roommates constantly kept the place so clean! Extra linen, towels, and blankets were right on hand.
