Keiko was truly an outstanding and kind host. She went above and beyond to make us feel at home. She greeted us at the train and even had yummy snacks waiting for us when we arrived . She gave us incredible recommendations for restaurants and shopping, and would check in on us every day, bringing treats and coffee. It was worth the trip to Japan to stay at Keiko’s, and I will miss every aspect of her charming home (especially the heated rugs ) and our amazing host . Keiko is truly a gift.
