Wakana, her daughter and her two cats made me feels extremely welcome. Wankana met me at the station (super close to the house) on my arrival and was always helpful each day to have a chat with me about my plans and contribute helpful tips. Shimokitazawa is lovely area with loads to see, do, and eat but less intense than your other city neighbourhoods but close enough for when your want to through yourself back into it. There isn't much else I can add to that hasn't already been said in previous reviews - it's a great little stay, really enjoyed it.
