My son and I had a great stay at Mary's place in Shimokitazawa. It is my favorite neighborhood in Tokyo and the location of her apartment is perfect - only a few minutes walk to the train station, on a super charming and quiet street, everything you need close by - including 24/7 convenience stores, a grocery store, MUJI, laundromat and of course a plethora of coffee shops and restaurants. The best location I have ever stayed in Tokyo! Super clean apartment as well with amenities like extra toothbrushes, pour over coffee pot and pocket WIFI. Highly recommend this apartment!
