My Wife and I absolutely loved our stay here, and would recommend this place to anyone! When we arrived there was still trash in the trash bin from the previous guests so it was a little stinky. There was a lady downstairs who checked us in and made sure we were comfortable. She showed us how the shower works (it is shared with the other rooms) and how to work all the things in our room. She explained how to change the fuse in our room if the power goes out. The shower didn’t work one of the days, I think that may have been a power issue. Mitaka is such a lovely little town with a lot of city life very close! We walked to and from the JR train station everyday, whether it was Mitaka Station or Kichijioji Station (they are both about a 15min walk away). There are multiple convenience stores within a 5 min walk from the place. This really made our Japanese experience more fun and authentic!
