The house itself is great and has some great amenities, although having only one toilet (upstair) and one shower (downstairs) was sometimes a bit of an inconvenience. The outside lounge area was great to relax in and the garden was beautiful. There was more than enough room for all of us and the fact there was a fridge to store our food was great. However, we weren't informed that the house was a duplex and that there was someone living above us, in such close proximity. We were told to be quiet because the people above could hear anything in the bathroom due to how the vents are made; so we had to whisper at all times. Even when going in and out of the house, we were told the gate and door made too much noise. This is a great place if you want to spend some relaxing time outside of the main bustle of Tokyo City. The walk to Nogata station is not too bad, and you can get to Shibuya Station and Shinjuku Station relatively quickly. It really felt like we were living in a home for our stay in Japan, and that was great.
