Host was very kind and responsive, never felt that they were out of communication. House is a 5-minute walk to the nearest train station. It's close to grocery stores and convenience stores. Approx 40 minutes to an hour to the center of Tokyo, depending on which neighborhood you are going to. The place was fairly clean but seemed as if it hadn't had a deep clean in a while (floors and walls were dusty, the table had noticeable grime, some spots in the shower). Other than that, the house felt cozy and my family enjoyed our stay.
Things to note:
- The beds are firm and structurally cheap (think of beds you'd find in a dorm)
- While the house has 3 bedrooms, there are no doors separating them, so it feels like one big room
