This place is great for kids, with a playground right across the street in a quiet neighborhood. Very close to one train station and about 15 min walk from another station. convenience store with food stuff about a 3 min walk away..Though it was a bit dusty during our stay, Yasuko-san was vey kind, and the apartment itself is comfortable, accessible, and well outfitted. I'd recommend downloading the Line app to stay connected to her, especially if your phone doesn't have international calling or internet :)
