Beautiful house, clean and well appointed. About 2.5 hours drive from Narita as too many traffic lights along Higashimurayama. Disappointed that owner was not in town and she asked her sister Ms Asahi to welcome us, although she is friendly I still missed opportunity in seeing Hotaka's performance. Owner's mother has gone for Scotland and again no opportunity for cooking class.
The district is a small town far from Tokyo, very quiet and serene. Room is equipped with automatic electronics including sauna bathtub. Nice experience on that.
Recycle system briefing was merely from the pictorial instruction sheet and nothing more.
