Pros: Convenient 3 minute walk from a subway station. Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Convenience store is close by. Kazumi is very responsive and accommodating - he let us drop off our bags before check-in time. The mobile wi-fi worked great and was very useful during out stay.

Cons: The apartment is out-dated, very small and cramped. It lacks a lot of basic amenities such as clothesline or other means to hang your laundered clothes either inside or outside, no kitchen knife, no dining knives. No closets or even basic shelves for guests use, so you are living out of your suitcases or leave things lying around on the floor. The bath-tub is tiny, so if you are big built, you won't fit.

In short, if you plan to stay a day or two and have no plans to cook or launder, this is an OK place. Else look elsewhere. It is one of those AirBnBs where you can tell the owner sees this purely as a business and has does not seem to have pride in the place .
