I have stayed at this home multiple times and I'm always happy to stay with the team William runs; at the time of this review his properties were called the "Bee Homes". I read several reviews on prior to staying here so I'm basing my review off the back of one I found which pretty much reflects what I believe is most accurate about this property, as follows:
At 2 stops away from Shinjuku and 6 minutes walking from the Hatagaya Station the location of this place was truly convenient.
From Shinjuku you can conveniently visit any place in Tokyo. It’s also good to note that from the Hatagaya station one can conveniently go directly to Akihabara which is also referred to as: Tokyo’s electronic city.
There is also a bus the departs less than 100 meters from the north exit of the Hatagaya station going directly to Shibuya and passing by the Yoyogi park (the equivalent of Central Park in NY) to which you could technically walk to, if you are up for a good morning stroll (1.7 kilometers or 1.05 miles) .
The place is surrounded by restaurants, bars, supermarkets, pharmacies and anything you would ever need while staying in Tokyo. I particularly recommend the "Hatagaya Shotengai" (幡ヶ谷商店街) shopping street.
The home itself is TINY as advertised and fits 4 people comfortably and 5 tightly if the sofa in a super slim dining hallway is used. Note that it is not a large sofa so you need to be truly a petty size to use that semi-single as a bed. Everything else is advertised with 3 HVAC, washing machine, iron/iron board, microwave, refrigerator, kitchenware, shampoo, clean sheets and towels etc.. Prior to arriving, I received a PDF file that walked me through the check-in and out process, so I was able to check in at my convenience, which was pretty cool. Could not say enough about the complementary pocket WiFi!!! It was extremely helpful to get around and navigate Tokyo like a local. As for the host, he was ready to respond to questions quickly and went the extra mile to help me every time.
My stay here was short, but I would definitely want to go stay longer next time I go back. Certainly staying here again!
