Shotaro’s place is terrific. For a family of 6 this was a very comfortable home with lots of room to spread out. The district around Mizue station is great with lots of places to eat. There was a festival on while we were there which was great. Shotaro is an excellent host who responded quickly. I really recommend this place for people wanting some space or wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of central Tokyo whilst still having easy access to all the sites.
