This is our first trip to Japan and staying at Takashi&Li's place was great! It was literally a 8-10 minute walk from Osaki station and in a very convenient location with a local feel. It was a very unique home that they built and Ellie their daughter was so cute! Her daughter spoke 3 languages and we were so surprised how smart she was. We didn't see Takashi much but he was a very nice guy and even bought us a breakfast sandwich one morning! Li speaks Japanese, fluent English and Chinese which made it even better. Our only thing is that the home has little sound insulation and even the smallest sound can be projected into your room. Just in case you were a light sleeper. Otherwise, we would certainly stay here again if we ever come back and recommend their place to others!
