Outstanding place, wonderful hosts. I would recommend staying here. Very comfortable, cozy, has everything you need. Can be a little noisy in the mornings due to birds, so bring some earplugs if you need, but it didn't bother us much. The alley/location feels like a quiet respite but is so close to Shinjuku area, which is most likely where you'll want to be if you're traveling around Japan or just want to be close to some of the brilliant things Tokyo has to offer. Host was very communicative and kind, but not overbearing. Easy check-in anytime. Immaculately clean. Great price. If you're curious, just stay here.
