Tokyo addresses are a little confusing to understand but we were able to figure out how to read the address quickly by checking with the friendly local policeman and the local residents.

When we reached the apartment, Keiko-san was already waiting for us. She gave us a quick introduction of the apartment. The apartment was really nice with the traditional japanese layout. It is also very clean. There was microwave, oven, stove, washing machine cum dryer etc. Everything you need is there, even detergent for washing. It was designed to make us feel at home. Very comfortable to stay in.

Keiko-san was very helpful when we asked for directions to certain places in Tokyo. She would check with us whether we are okay throughout our stay. She even prepared food and drinks for us when we reached.

The neighbourhood is relatively quiet and the apartment is very near Minowa station. There are 3 supermarkets and a 7-11 around the area. One of the supermarket is 24-hour. The items sold in the non 24-hour supermarket are cheaper. Eateries around the area open til late.

When we departed from the apartment, Keiko-san accompanied us all the way to the train station, making sure that we get to the station safely.

There is nothing that we can find fault with this place and the host. We strongly recommend this place, especially for those who prefer a quiet neighbourhood.
