Kyoko's place was perfect for our group of 12! She was extremely helpful and her place was absolutely perfect. Kyoko is such a kind and considerate host! We especially loved the upstairs common space with the foot massages (they definitely saw a lot of use!). The kitchen had everything we need to make a shabu shabu xmas dinner. Perfect location in between 2 stations (just note that there might be an uphill walk from Shimo-kitazawa station) and was within walking distances to Shimo Kitazawa city centre which had a lot of restaurants and vintage shops - was such a lively place!! (They have an Ichiran Ramen there!). Definitely recommend this house if you want to check out a different side of Tokyo! Thank you for letting us spend our first family Christmas as your place!
