This was a beautiful place to stay. I stayed for three weeks and really loved it the entire time. The host was incredibly helpful, she provided a map around the neighborhood with nice places to go. I can't stress enough how beautiful this neighborhood is for being on the outskirts of Tokyo. If you like nature, there are two parks nearby that are wonderful to stroll through, the mountains that are mentioned are gorgeous and lush full of hills and trails. It is about 45 minutes to and hour to downtown Tokyo by the subway, which isn't bad once you get used to it. I suggest buying a pasmo card early and just loading up a few thousand yen at a time if you will be there for more than a few days. The house itself is really nice, especially for this price, it was a lot of room considering it is in Tokyo. If you are looking to travel to Tokyo for any amount of time but want a more down to earth, traditional experience, I definitely recommend staying here.
