I really enjoyed staying here by myself for two nights. Masami, the husband, speaks good English by Japan standards and you'll have no issue understanding him and conversing with him if English is your primary language. Him and his wife were very welcoming and warm my entire stay. After showing me my living quarters, they sat down with me for some comfortable small talk and coffee. After I got a little settled in, Masami offered to show me around the nearby area, which is pretty busy the entire day through dinner time, and then dies down as midnight approaches. Their home is hardly a five minute walk to the nearest metro station, which has a Subway line and JR line. The longest I ever had to travel on the metro to get anywhere from their home was about fourty minutes, with the average being about twenty minutes. The room was more than adequate for one person and would be good for a couple.
