The interior design is crisp and clean. We love that there’s a reed diffuser and an artificial plant in every corner. We feel fresh and cosy wherever we are in the apartment. The roof windows on the second and third floor allow enough sunlight for the day.
One thing to note is that it’s not an easy task to lift big luggage to the second and even the third floor. We simply left our bags on the ground floor instead.
The whole apartment is not big so each floor is a little small. It’s even a little cramped for the five of us. Be prepared to walk up and down the stairs for bed, for bathrooms, and for the kitchen. And since there’s no door for the third-floor bedroom, privacy cannot be guaranteed.
The location is perfect. Just a few minutes away from the JR Yamamoto Line 山手線 and just a few stops away from Shinjuku新宿 and Ikebukuro池袋. Still the apartment is secluded in a residential neighbourhood which gives it a sense of tranquility.
Overall, a four-star apartment.
