This was our second stay at Kota's place within a couple of weeks. We knew we would have to go back to Tokyo at the end of our Japan trip, so we took the chance on booking the same place so we wouldn't have to deal with the hassle of looking for our new location. We guessed right!

I suppose the best compliment we can give to an Air BnB booking is that when we arrived back at Kota's place, our 4 year old gleefully shouted we were back 'home.'

It was also clutch to have the washer/dryer unit towards the end of our trip. We wanted to pack lightly, so we needed to do the laundry.

Kota was extremely easy to communicate with. The day we were scheduled to arrive back in Tokyo, was the day of the terrible tragedy on the Shinkansen. As such, we were delayed three hours. Because we were traveling without a mobile, I emailed Kota regarding our delay. He responded right away.

One more note to add: Kota has a refined sense of Japanese aesthetics. His choice in artwork, tableware, and decorations were truly elegant. When you go on vacation in Japan, it's nice to stay in a place that, you know, feels 'Japanese'!

Excellent place!
