Machiko’s place offer two bedrooms and two bathrooms in a great location at a reasonable price. Being in Korea town and a 25 minute walk from Shinjuku means you will never be lacking for things to eat or easy access to transport. The rooms themselves are nice and the bathrooms, while cramped, had everything covered. Even at 180cm I was able to make good use of the tub for a some relaxation. The beds unfortunately are not relaxing. They are hard and uncomfortable as a westerner as while they may look like a western mattress they are actually Japanese futons raised off the floor onto a bed frame. A further problem for our rooms was that the air conditioning motors for all four apartments in the complex were outside our windows. As a result if anyone in the building has their AC or heating on you will know it. The kitchenette in each room was basic to the point of lacking a Microwave (which is an interesting omission when everything in Japan is made to be microwaveable). Location and value for money were good but ammenities lacking.
