David is less of a host and more of a friend who _happens_ to be the host. He was incredibly helpful both before and during our stay. On our first night, he helped us navigate through Shinjuku, going as far as escorting us for a few blocks, and we shared friendly conversations throughout our stay. Everything was great, especially the relatively-quiet location in Shinjuku, but a fair warning is the place's size. Likely a symptom of most places in Tokyo, the room was very tiny, and my wife and I felt very cramped by the end of our stay. Either way, we enjoyed our time.
