Although Kenji took days to reply to me, and I almost cancelled the booking because of it, when I actually me him he was so nice and even carried my suitcase up the stairs. His place was amazing. It was very close to the Ikebukuro Station, countless restaurants and a convenience store. The apartment is on the 2nd floor so even if you have big suitcases it's not really a problem. We would definitely stay there again.
