Chie's apartment was cosy and clean, and everything was as described. While the stairs may be steep, it ain't that much of a hassle and the couch in the living room could be used as a bed as well. Heaters were provided which helped a lot since the house can get very cold. We used the kitchen as well and everything was so convenient. The only bummer was that the house is located slightly far from town (about 20-30minutes subway ride) but it's right next to the subway station so traveling was a breeze. Certainly not a deal breaker and the supermarket nearby was a plus point as well. Overall I really enjoyed my stay and I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again for my next trip to Tokyo :)
