By far one of the best locations I’ve ever been in Japan. Takashi and Shiho’s place is so convenient as it is just across the Koenji Station. No long walks going to the station! Around their place are restaurants, drug stores, convenient store and there is a 24/hr grocery store around the corner.
As for the space itself, we had everything we needed during our stay. My best friend and I visited in winter and our very kind hosts provided an electric warmer for our beds. So great after long days of walk in the cold. Also, I appreciate so much the the kitchen is complete with the necessary utensils. We were able cook breakfast and all.
Lastly, the hosts, Takashi and Shiho are the kindest. Very polite, friendly and responds as quickly as possible and checks on us from once in a while during our stay to make sure we are doing okay. Such lovely hosts!
