Stayed here for a few days on our first trip to Tokyo and I'm glad we found this place. The best thing about this house it its location - the entire Ebisu/Hiroo area feels nice, stylish and homey. Despite being in the middle of Tokyo and only a few little side streets back from the main road - the house was super quiet and we really loved that so we can get good sleep every night. Not sure if its always so quiet or only cause its winter.
Whether you like the house or not comes down to personal taste and you should never compare one place to another anyway unless they are in the same country and city. While the home was clean and functional, personally I didn't find the place cosy in any way as its fairly dark inside all day. So we really just used the house to sleep and spent all other times outside exploring Tokyo. You can't really look out any window as they are all frosted windows, but I guess even if they weren't - can't see anything anyway since neighbouring house is about 10cm close to it :-)
I'm not writing above as negative criticism but more to provide other prospective tenants with a realistic view of what to expect. You'll certainly get a feel how it is to live in a traditional mid-Tokyo home but I would say the approx. location within Tokyo is probably the best attribute of the place.
Either way, the host Dhia was great - quick communication at all times and he personally met us and showed us the house.
Thanks for the hospitality, we enjoyed our stay and left us with a good impression of Tokyo!
