We booked this place last minute due to a sudden cancellation of our previously booked airbnb. It is about a 10-12 minute walk to either Okachimachi or Akihabara Station not including getting to the platform (these stations are a labyrinth and very crowded).
There is some city sounds that can be heard from the window although it is far from the rowdiest parts of the neighbourhood. Surrounded by cheap restaurants.
If getting home from a late night in Akiba without worrying about the last train home is your thing, this might be the place for you. But if you are after a place with the perks of Japanese apartments, this is not it. The apartment seems cheaply built with no lift, only very steep and narrow stairs so be prepared if coming with heavy luggage. The toilet lacks a bidet or even an exhaust fan. The shower door leads right into the hallway and there is no TV. It is not the most comfortable stay for the price, but it kept us near the action of Tokyo.
