This is a clean and comfortable apartment. It is small, but that is to be expected. Having said this, I’d recommend this apartment to a couple and not friends as it’s intimate quarters. Our host was incredibly thoughtful and one day made sure to warn us of upcoming bad weather and rail closures because of a typhoon. I really appreciated this concern for our safety. We also loved frequenting an Izakaya called Kura on Okubo-Dori (just across from the station).
