Kaoru's place was awesome. It was just what we needed. 10-15 minute walk to the nearest JR station will put you on the yamanote line that connects all of tokyo. The neighborhood had alot of good resteraunts and cool places to check out. We had caused some draining trouble with the shower and within hours Kaoru was able to come over and fix it while we were away exploring Tokyo. Awesome place and an awesome host.
