Excellent 6-day stay in Arakawa. Clean and quiet environment.
Convenient transport. Some 7 mins bus or 15 mins walk to Nipponi station, one of the station on Yamanote-sen (a railway loop line in Tokyo). And 20 mins bus to Asakusa where renowned Sensoji and Nakamise locate.

Hisao couple was very nice and helpful during my stay. Thank you for the delicious breakfast everyday. And so honored to be invited to a family gathering in Hisao san's place. Lots of fun.

Hisao san is a very good kendo teacher as well. Language would be the last thing to worry about if you want to experience one of the most influencing Japanese culture.

Would definitely love to stay in my next visit. And your stay is sincerely recommended.
