This apartment is the perfect blend of contemporary and traditional design. It’s quite spacious for Tokyo standards and the tatami room gives the apartment a very modern yet traditional feel. The trains pass in front the balcony so if the windows are open it can be quite loud, but the apartment’s windows and doors do a great job of blocking out most of the noise. There are no blackout curtains in the tatami room so it’s rather bright on mornings which was ok for me. There’s a lovely big screen tv to enjoy while relaxing on the spacious couch. The location is pretty convenient, close to the station and stores and restaurants are accessible within minutes on foot. May is a wonderful host! She’s easy to reach and spoke english quite well! Will definitely be staying here again.
