This is my second time staying at Kawano'S. And this time, with my family of 12 Adults, on behalf, I rented all 3 Apartments - Cedar, Wahuu, and J's (4 Adults to each apartment) in the same building during our February 2016 - 7 days, 6 nights trip in Tokyo.

Highly recommended for travelers who wants to stay away from the busy city area. Tateishi is a good neighborhood with plenty of good food, local shops, local market to explore. The best part is that the apartments are of walking distance to the train station, which make it really convenient to travel into the city.

The subway however, can be a little tricky. With the english guide book (which can be picked up at the airport) and the free portable wifi provided by Koji & Nami which were really useful, journey and communication in such big group are made simpler.

Each apartments are really clean and pretty. We really enjoyed our stay at the apartments. It was as though returning home despite being away from home. Each apartments are exactly as shown in the pictures posted.

For Cedar and Wahuu are huge enough to stay up to 5-6 people comfortably with bed / tatamis. Both apartments have huge kitchen and dining space. As for J's, not as huge as Cedar and Wahuu, recommended to stay up to 3-4 comfortably. Small kitchen space, with spacious living area. They even have washing machine and dryer at travelers' conveniences.

Koji and Nami are really cute & fun couple. Despite being my second stay with them, they are humble, friendly, helpful, mostly everything you expect / wish from a Super Host of Airbnb. On top of everything, they respond rather promptly. So if you thinking of staying with them but do have queries, do drop them an email. Im sure they are more than happy to assist you.

One of our best experiences during our stay in Tokyo was to hang out with Koji. We got a chance ( as we didnt on our last trip) to hang out with Koji and Friends, and we really enjoyed ourselves. They even brought us to local hidden bars in the neighborhood.

They have a total of 9 different apartments for renting. We will definitely rent other apartments from Kawano's on our next trip to experience different homely vibe. As we all agreed, Tateishi has a really great neighborhood and Koji and Nami have been nothing but awesome hosts. Till the next stay. <3
