My wife and I stayed at Daisuke's Green Apartment for 4 nights. The location was right in the middle of Shimokita, a young and happening neighborhood, a 3 minute walk from Shimokitazawa station, which services the Odakyu and Inokashira metro lines. It was easy to access lots of other neighborhoods in Tokyo by taking the Inokashira line express one stop to the much larger Shibuya Station, or the Odakyu line express two stops to Shinjuku.

This was our second trip to Tokyo so our plans were more centered around exploring different neighborhoods and food (versus seeing major sites), and being in the middle of a fun neighborhood with easy train access made it easy to explore fit the bill perfectly. The apartment was simple but functional, and a great deal relative to hotels in Tokyo. Daisuke was also kind enough to fill it with snacks!

Upon arrival there was a slight mixup with the keys (they got switched between this apartment and the one next door, which he also rents), but after letting Daisuke know he rode his bike over right away while we waited in the other apartment, we swapped the keys and were good to go.

Daisuke also checked in via Airbnb message daily to see if we needed anything, and was happy to help with any booking of restaurants or event tickets. He also provided us with an online guide with recommended bars, restaurants and cafes in Shimokita and the surrounding area as well as other excursion ideas.

All in all we had a great experience with Daisuke and the apartment and would be more than happy to book with him again on our next trip to Tokyo!
