I had wonderful 1.5 weeks at Atsuko-san's and Hana-san's home. Although I arrived rather late in the evening from overseas, Atsuko-san picked me up at the nearest metro station. The room was cozy and comfy with everything I needed. It is small but I managed to handle my baggage (1 x 70l backpack, 1 x cabin trolley, 1 x 20l daypack). Access to the shared facilities was easy and everything was very clean. The neighbourhood is safe and pretty with great jogging paths along a little river nearby and an almost village-like shopping street for your daily needs. No worries if you don't speak Japanese fluently - both hosts speak English and their little house manual is in English, too. I very much enjoyed my stay and warmheartedly recommend it!
