David’s apartment is well-furnished and very clean, with a comfortable bed, the only downside being the building which is not very well insulated and therefore the room has a few drafts. If you’re staying as two people, the room is ideal for shorter stays, as the space is quite limited.
Shinjuku is not a quiet area, so don’t expect that, but it is bustling with activities, bars and restaurants, and the noise is not bothersome at night.
The apartment complex is at walking distance to both central Shinjuku and Koreatown in Shin-Okubo.
David was an amazing and friendly host, quickly responded to any questions we had, and even helped me receive a package when my delivery had gone wrong.
I recommend this to anyone who likes living frugally but at the center of city life.
