I stayed at Maiko’s place for 3 nights. I didn’t meet her in person, but she provided a lot of useful information about her apartment and responded quickly to inquiries. Unfortunately, her place is a bit far from the nearest JR station and we had some cleaning issues, partly resolved by the host. The bed linens weren’t clean and had yellow patches, probably because the current laundry method is not doing an efficient job. Besides, the bathroom extractor fan was filthy and common areas got dirty quickly as there were many people using them and they weren’t cleaned every day, but other than that everything else was ok.
