We had a great stay at Steve’s! His house in Nishiogikubo is a great spot; it’s near the station and the surrounding neighborhood offers much to explore yet it doesn’t get too noisy, so if you’re looking for a fun yet quiet place to stay, Steve’s place is a winner. Steve is also a great host; he brought us out for lunch at one of the popular ramen spots at Nishi-ogikubo and also several drinking spots around the neighbourhood. He is very friendly and personable and reverts very quickly to our questions. The room was extremely spacious, clean and comfortable for 2 of us. And we appreciated the washing machine and dryer that came in the house.while the bathroom was a bit small, everything is provided and the hot water flow is very strong. Overall, we would highly recommend Steve’s place to stay.
