The location is a short walk away from the Tateshi train station. However you would not be able to use the Tourist Subway Pass (need to add 160Yen for every trip to and from Tateshi if you have the Tourist Subway Pass). However, it is a good place to set base to explore downtown Tokyo and only to return to q quiet and tranquil location at the end of your day.
The house is typically Japanese style, everything is compact but usable. Steps a a little to steep.
I love my morning walks to the nearby Family Mart to get my daily Latte.Love the neighborhood as you are surrounded by very friendly neighbors.
Kei is a very hospitable and helpful. He communicates well in English and even left a small gift of local cookies for us.
