Staying at Manami's was perfect for our first visit to Tokyo! Koenji is a great neighborhood, just two stops from Shinjuku so it's easy to get around. The space itself was clean and roomy, which is a godsend in Tokyo. It was nice to have the a sitting area and desk, and we quickly got used to the loft stairs. We didn't get to meet Manami, but check in was a breeze, and her communication was always quick and friendly. Finally, make sure you visit the bakery around the corner-- it was our favorite part of our stay. Thank you, Manami!
