Seagull is an excellent host He met us at the station promptly, gave us all the information we needed and even supplied a few extra items when we asked for them. The place is small, typical of Japanese apartments, but the traditional tatami mats and futons are very comfortable and the washer and balcony were great for regular laundry. The location is excellent, 5 minutes to the station and in a charming local neighbourhood. Excellent value for such a centrally located traditional apartment.
