I stayed 10 nights at Yukiko's place and it was great.
You just feel at home.
Yukiko came to pick me up at the station nearby, 5 minute walk.
To go to Shibuya by subway, it will take you 40 mns with a change at Nippori.
The room was spacious and clean , just like the toilet and bathroom downstairs.
You can store some things in a private little fridge, downstairs, very convenient.
You enter the house by using a code, easy to remember.
You have several shops around as well as restaurants.
I will definitely go back to Yukiko's next time I go back to Tokyo .
A great place.
