We absolutely loved staying at Yu's place. It is just two quick train stops from Shibuya and close to everything we needed for our brief but action packed two day visit. We were able to arrive from Narita by train via the Keisei and JR lines and departed to Haneda by taxi (approx. 85000 Yen) though there is a bus. We did get a bit lost getting to the apartment, but Yu responded within minutes and we found the place just fine.
The neighborhood is a fantastic enclave and the apartment is just like the pictures, There was ample room for two people. The bathroom is giant with plenty of hot water and great water pressure. Yu kindly provided shampoo, conditioner, and body soap. We even were able to have cake and coffee on the balcony, which was a delight! We felt like we got a fantastic deal compared to the cost of a hotel. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
Two restaurants nearby that we visited and loved are:
Tonki, a Pork Katsu restaurant within walking distance operating since 1939 . 1-1-2 Shimomeguro, Meguro-ku
Sushikamo, a neighborhood sushi restaurant about a 5 minute taxi ride away. The chef speaks broken english and went out of his way to give us a delightful meal. 8-9, Yakumo 1-Chrome, Megro-ku
