This old house in the Sumida area is amazing! It survived earthquakes, wars, and urban development to provide you an experience unique in all of Tokyo. The house is fully equipped and comfortable, with AC in the summer and heaters in the winter. The neighborhood is intriguing, with artists and great restaurants, perhaps like Greenwich Village circa 1970. The hosts are responsive and provide excellent local tips and secrets. You will feel like you have stepped back in time, far from the beaten tourist paths, yet within easy walking distance of the metro and Skytree. Highly recommended for travelers searching for experiences outside of the guidebooks.
