Zhang and his wife were wonderful hosts. They were very accommodating and answered our queries regardless of how many. The place is not as big as we thought but it was enough to fit the 4 of us. Also, Zhang's place is convenient for travel to Shibuya and Shinjuku. Those places are just 1 or 2 short train rides away from the local train station. There are also convenience stores, local restaurants/stores, and a laundromat nearby Zhang's place for your daily needs.
