Our stay in Daitabashi was well worth it! The station is close to Shinjuku which links to the rest of Tokyo. In Diatabashi itself there is some very cool bars and restaurants that we found. The locals don't see too many foreigners in the area but are more than welcoming. We recommend Awaited restaurant it was very good tapas style dining. Also pizza bar two for a drink or 2. There are a few supermarkets and convenience stores on the way to the flat that were very helpful when we needed things.
The flat itself is very small but is to be expected in Tokyo. We had 4 of us staying and managed to make it work. The kitchen although again small had everything needed to wip something up. The place was clean and comfortable. The pocket wifi was also very helpful.
