This is our second stay at Hanako's place which we thoroughly enjoyed. Hanako is a kind and helpful host. She was always quick to reply to messages. Her apartment was clean, modern and conveniently located. It was about 5 minutes walk to Ōtsuka station and 15 minutes walk to Sunshine City in Ikebukuro.
There are 2 supermarkets (Aeon and Saine) near Ōtsuka station and a 7 Eleven just across the road from the apartment. We will stay here again next time.
