Noboru is a great man! There wasn't that much communication between us due to the fact I don't really speak Japanese but would highly recommend this place to stay if anyone needs a quiet place to sleep. May need to share the bathroom with other guests but you do get the private room for staying which is perfect consider the location is in Shinjuku-the heart of Tokyo, the train station is the cross street from the house. There are guideline and metro maps in the room. It's Japanese-style room and it's very neat and clean, love it.
