Keiko is a wonderful host who goes out of her way to help you out when you get stuck. I think at one point I wanted her to move in with me. The house is huge and Keiko will always have tea, cakes and snacks for you which come in handy when you wake up hungry and jetlagged in the middle of the night. She also gave me tips for local restaurants and yutaka shops and came shopping with me. I felt like I was staying at a friend`s house.
