Chie 's house is really clean and lovely. It is located in nice location.It isn't only near both of jr and subway station, but also near restaurants ,hospital, post office ,convenient stores and even mc Donald!. It located in residental area, so it will be quiet at night which it is really good to relax after traveling! Anyway, near by the jr station, there is one shop which has shiba inu. You can walk there and play with her lol.
In case of the host, Chie is really nice. She can speak English fluently, so if you have anything u wonder, don't hesitate to ask her. Besides, she does really care about us. She kept asking if we has arrived the room and stuffs. therefore, because of her hospitality, I highly recommend you to stay with her! You also have a home for yourself at night: )
