Choco‘s place is really close to Koenji station. It’s perfect for travelers with a JR railway pass. If you get a Tokyo metro pass you have to walk 10 - 15 minutes to Shin-Koenji station. Koenji is a very nice neighborhood where locals live. The apartment was small but clean. Perfect for 2 people. If you’re on the taller and heavier side the sleeping space upstairs might be uncomfortable for you. The mattress is very thin and the space is rather small. Choco and his housekeeper Aiko were very kind and sweet. They responded quickly and gave us clear instructions und English. Overall, this place offers good value for money.
