Ling's Ling's house has 3 levels, plenty of privacy space for a family. The place is spacious for a family of 4. As there were no one staying in the ground floor bedroom, we could easily hang our clothes in the balcony (accessible via the bedroom). Note: Washing machine does not come with dryer function.
Host also provide futon, which can be laid out in the tatami room on the 1st floor (if you don't want to haul your luggage all the way to the 2nd floor). The staircase can be narrow and steep especially when carrying luggage.
And dad enjoyed the coffee maker machine so much that he's vowed to buy one when he goes back.
