It was my 18 year old son’s first trip to Japan and he wanted to spend one week exploring on his own before starting college at TUJ. I chose K’s place because it was reasonably priced, by a train station, near good restaurants and close to the exciting places and experiences in Tokyo. My son went on daily adventures and enjoyed his week there. And . . . I wasn’t freaking out about him being alone in a foreign country for the first time because K was very welcoming and available if he ever needed anything. Mahalo K and Aloha from Hawaii.
