Pine House is a great little hideaway in the back streets of Tateishi. We were chauffeured from Aoto station by Mr T and transported to Pine House. The neighbourhood around the station is quiet but well serviced by traditional restaurants and bars and a nice change from the chaos of the tourist spots of Tokyo. The house can easily accommodate up to four people and is well serviced and has pretty much everything you need for a night in or a breakfast before heading out. There is a terrific supermarket under Aoto station. Highly recommended.
