Kentaro is a fantastic host. His communications are clear, quick, and easy to follow. Check in was easy. The apartment is spacious with a nice common area with seating, plus a table with benches. The toilet is separate from the shower/bathing room, which has the 2-in-1 washer and dryer. The two bedrooms were also quite spacious and generous room for 4 rail-weary travelers. The kitchen was well appointed with dishes and cookware, plus tea and coffee. The fridge was big enough to hold a week’s worth of groceries, easily. Ueno is a little off the beaten path, and quiet which is a nice change. It’s a 10 min walk from the apartment to the Ueno Rail Station if you’re hoofing it, otherwise maybe 15 mins gentle stroll. There’s a subway stop that’s only 5-7 mins walk. I would stay here again. Fantastic value and property.
