Location location... what a wonderful location. The room is exactly as described. I traveled with my 10 year old son and wanted him to get a feel of living like a local, and this space was great. The Fresh flowers on the door was a great touch!
Restaurants and bars, local shops, super market, every things is right around... and it’s way more chill and fun then busy Shinjuku, although if you want to go to Shinjuku or shibuya or anywhere it’s a hop up the road via the rail system (which is a couple minutes walking from Mai’s place).
Mai is the sweetest, and while she doesn’t speak English well she still managed to speak English so well to make things easier for us. I had no problems communicating with her.
Our first day there we were starving she literally walked us around the amazing neighborhood hood showing us her recommended places to eat.
