Hello future travelers!
Aki san was a really great host to me and my friends for 3-4 days.
We were given clear and simple instructions with images to guide us to her place!
She also contacted us while we were travelling towards Tokyo to make sure we were alright. Very sweet of her! Though we arrived early before the check-in, she showed us around with amazing hospitality, showing us how facilities work in the home. Our rooms were clean, towels for shower and face towels were prepared. There is a small coffee table with tea for the guests. Aki san gave us lots of recommendations of what was fun to do around Tokyo and places to have good food!
There was many small things she did that also made our experience there wholesome.
I believe to have a host this attentive to their guests needs, you would definitely have a good experience staying in her traditional room.
Bonus: She has cute fluffy cats.
