We were looking for budget accommodation as close to a major city as possible. Overall we enjoyed it.
What we liked:
* Only a 20 minute walk to the Shinjuku main district.
* Check in experience is very easy.
* Host is very friendly and responsive. They fixed a broken clothes line on the same day.
* Pocket wifi worked flawlessly.
* 100 yen Lawson is close by and it is awesome. We found our favourite Meiji Matcha ice cream here that we could no longer find anywhere else. Try the stone grilled sweet potato at the front!
* Closest station (Akebonobashi) has an elevator which was very useful as we had a small child with a pram.
What could be improved/what we didn't like:
* No bowls are supplied, so be prepared to use the mugs as an alternative.
* Strangely no shower curtain in the bathroom. We had to take very careful showers so as not to get the toilet and floor wet.
* The area can get a bit noisy with the sound of vehicles, deliveries, neighbours etc.
* The bathroom entrance is very low, I banged my head on it so many times. Be careful!
* The washing line is outside the bedroom window, which was narrow and a bit difficult to access.
