Having the first floor bedroom and entrance to it at the front door makes this stay feel private even though there is a shared bathroom and shower/tub. The place is very clean and comfortable. Access to the kitchen and laundry is definitely a plus.
The location is perfect. Maki will help you find the easist route to the main shopping, restaurant locations and train stations.
The host is an excellent communicator that also speaks English and very helpful. It truly was our "home" away from home. A super host!!!
