It was a wonderful stay in Tomo's beautiful house located in Otsuka. The walk from Otsuka Station to Tomo's house is 5mins. The directions Tomo gave before hand were too clear to miss. Just right beside the house, there is a convenient store, less than 1 minute walk. Within 5mins walk, there is a huge 3 storeys supermarket. Out from Otsuka Station have plenty of nice local restaurants, shops, and the must go drug store! I feel that, after a long day visiting the busy areas like Shinjuku, Shibuya, Harajuku, Asakusa and so on, it is really nice to rest in a place that feels like your own home. Tomo's house gave me the feeling as if I live in Tokyo. It was really comfortable and clean and you really feel like home. It's amazing. Otsuka it's not a very busy area as compare to Shinjuku or Tokyo station area. In additional, there is this very small place that sells bento set @ 550japanese yen(about 5USD). From the house turn left on the way to Otsuka Station. It was so good and we take away the bento set and have it in the house with sake and beer just simply made our last day in Tokyo wonderful. Please consider Tomo's place, he is a great host! I will come back!
