We (a Japanese and American couple, and our 11-month-old twins) stayed in this house for 10 nights in September 2014.

The house is in an awesome location, a couple of minutes walk to Hatsudai station and the Opera City complex with restaurants, a convenience store, and a small supermarket. The Hatsudai shopping area is a couple of minutes further. The center of Shinjuku with all it has to offer is a short walk.

The house itself is brand-new, built in 2014. It is a marvel of Japanese engineering to see how they can fit a three bedroom house with a full kitchen and Japanese bath on such a narrow lot. The house is well equipped with everything you need. The slight inconvenience of only a single toilet is offset by the fact that the toilet, bath, and sink/vanity are all separate, in the Japanese style, so that they can all be used simultaneously. The house is a totally authentic modern Japanese experience!

Tracey was an awesome host, she went out of her way to make sure that we had everything we needed, including providing two baby beds with sheets and all, and offering to lend us a stroller! She checked in with us every few days to make sure we were doing OK and to see if we needed anything. When we left a changing pad for the babies behind, she went out of her way to let us know and mail it to us.
