Kimiko's place is as described - it is a convenient, short walk from the metro station and has supermarket and convenience stores nearby. We were two guests so the apartment was spacious enough for our bags and purchases; all amentities were labelled in English with a how-to-use instructions folder, which we appreciated. The wifi device was handy as well! We had a smooth check-in and Kimiko was responsive to all our queries. Given the size of the apartment and its convenience (the metro station is only several minutes away from Ikebukuro station), we would be happy to stay here again. Thanks, Kimiko.
