Kens place was perfect for our family of 4. There are 2 bedrooms, one with 2 twin beds and the other with 2 single futons on the floor. Both bedrooms and the lounge area have a/c so we kept nice and cool at night (we went in spring).
I used the washing machine everyday. You can dry your clothes in the rack or by hanging in the bathroom and using the dry function. All washing products included. Bathroom was great -even had a bath! So soap, shampoo and conditioner all there.
I felt the place was relatively quiet and easy to find given the great instructions provided on how to get there from Akihabara station. We went out each night and ate at the local restaurants so didn’t use the kitchen at all. 7-11 and family mart close by and hubbie found a coffee shop very close by in the side lanes.
It was so easy to get to Akihabara station to then visit the rest of Tokyo. Also easy to do a day trip to Nikko.
After visiting Shibuya and Shinjuku (popular places for western tourists to stay) I am so glad that we stayed at ken’s place in Akihabara as it was a nice easy, quiet and safe neighbourhood and not teeming with massive crowds. The kebab shop next to McDonald’s down near the station was a huge find!
I would highly recommend ken’s place.
