I would not recommend this accomodation to any one with luggage who is arriving before 4:00 pm or leaving to catch transport after midday. There is no luggage storage. We had to take our bags to Tokyo Station, all the lockets were full, but we found a luggage room which charged 600¥ per bag. The host would not allow us to drop bags off before check in time or leave them after check out. Bruce appears to be a woman, but I didn’t get to meet her
