The hosts were great! They gave very clear and helpful directions and instructions for check in, including a helpful map from the nearby train station. They welcomed us with apple juice (which was delicious and great after a long day of travelling). The neighbourhood has a Family Mart, Lawson, and supermarket. They washed the towels for us each day. The place is just like the pictures in the listing. It's well kept and clean. They also gave us a nice map for the cherry blossoms nearby and let us know it'd be the last day to see them. They're so considerate! They were easy to get a hold of and they seem very organized. It was a great place to stay!
