SIMPLY AMAZING. Haruko-san made Jiyuugaoka feel like home. The neighborhood is gorgeous and the house is very cozy. The tatami is extremely comfortable. My daughter and I were on a very busy travel schedule and often got home kinda late, but things were pretty convenient because there is a door separating our space and the living room, so we wouldn't disturb anyone. The breakfast Haruko-san makes is delicious and definitely enough to fill your hungry stomach. It is also quite easy to get to the Jiyuugaoka station from the house, and from there you can take the subway to pretty much anywhere (yes the commute might be a teeny tiny bit long but it's totally worth it). We LOVED our stay and Haruko-san is one of the most generous and amiable person I've ever met. Thank you so very much, Haruko-san. It was the greatest pleasure meeting you and staying at Jiyuugaoka.
