A 10min walk to Ikebukuro station, located on a quiet street. The apartment is a private room in one house - there are other rooms rented out or lived in. A share facility is on the top floor for laundry and kitchen etc. There is no elevator but we were luckily on the bottom floor. The walls and ceiling are very thin so you can hear footsteps, talking and the water flushing constantly - be mindful of this when booking here as we were woken constantly by children and people talking/ noise upstairs and outside our window.
