Don't be fooled by the gorgeous photos of this apartment. It is in no way worth your time and money. Hiz's designation as a 'superhost' reassured me, but it is a misnomer. Hiz and his/her Japanese assistant are a discredit to AirBnB. The place really has potential, but it is not maintained properly and the host is antipathetic. The chairs are broken and dangerous. The smallish threadbare towels may be fine if you are staying one night. There is nowhere to hang wet towels. The shower tiles are detached at floor level. The wooden 'bathmat' is flimsy. The grout in the shower is filthy. There was hair in the bed linen and the futon was really thin. The zabuton cushions are dirty. There is dust everywhere. Re communication, I asked to see the host face to face so that we could talk about the unsatisfactory state of the apartment. The host was busy. I asked if there was a handtowel somewhere I could put in the bathroom. I was told to use tissues to dry my hands. I asked if there were teabags somewhere to make a cup of tea and was told that no foodstuffs are supplied as 'previous guests may have put illicit substances in them and it would therefore be dangerous to provide any'. However, they do provide salt and pepper so clearly this is a ridiculous fob-off. And don't expect a welcome 'how to' manual or explanation of the local area. The place is managed on the cheap and in no way conforms to AirBnB's ethos. Wasted a day sorting it out with AirBnB and moving elsewhere.
