Clean cozy room, private bathroom, low cost, just a few mins walk from a train station.
Taturo was very friendly and helpful. He always responded quickly and gave great suggestions on places to see. The room was great and as described. Great deal for the price. Definitely recommended.
Neighborhood is fine but not a very interesting place itself.
Cons: You can hear cars driving by at night. Not a problem if you wear ear plugs. There are also several other rooms in the bldg which aren't street side which you could book instead.
And the train station isn't a JR station. It costs 206 yen to take the Seibu-Ikebukuro line to Ikebukuro which is the closest JR station (no big deal).
