We stayed here for 5 days on our honeymoon without knowing anything about Shimokitazawa beyond what Google could tell us. We were SO pleased with the location!! Super fun, bustling neighborhood with a great night life. Daisuke was available throughout our entire stay for questions and welcomed us warmly via message when we arrived. He's a great host! The space itself is exactly what you'd expect from the pictures and having a kitchen and washing machine made this way bigger than most hotels you're going to find in Japan. Great experience - highly recommend!
