Our stay at Yoshimi & Marek Markowski’s apartment was fantastic! My husband and I stayed there for a week in October 2012.
It was a cozy, very well equiped, comfortable appartment that had everything we needed to have a very enjoyable stay.
We arrived in the evening which made the appartment hard to find as we couldn’t see the yellow building given in instructions on how to get there. The directions were a bit confusing but a very nice lady helped us find it. Yoshimi was home when we arrived so she opened the door for us as we could not find the box key. (The box key is a lock attached to the side window, I guess we were looking for a mailbox or a small locker, so we couldn’t find it.)
The survival guide Yoshimi & Marek left for us was flawless. It explained how to use the appliances in the apartment, which have all instructions in Japanese, but it also included very valuable information about Tokyo.
The walk from Oshiage subway station is about 15 minutes and there are grocery stores and few restaurants close to the appartment, which made it even more convenient.
We highly recommend Yoshimi & Marek’s apartment as a great accommodation option in Tokyo.
