Min (the host) was very nice.

The neighborhood was a bit unfriendly; it was the only place I experienced in Japan where people blew me off or yelled at me when I asked for directions, which I needed, because Google, and subsequently a taxi, had taken me to the wrong location. I was imagining having to call the AirBNB emergency number from my dying American cell phone, but Min came out on his bike after 10pm and found me somehow.

After actually reaching the place, things were great. Finding my way back there later was also no problem.
