Elle's house is as per described online. It's close to train station by 5 to 7 mins walk. There is an Isetan supermarket next to the train station where you can do grocery shopping with reasonable variety. There is also a big Matsukiyo pharmacy opposite the train station where you can buy medicine and cosmetics. It's a big one compared with those branches on the high streets, which is very convenient to tourists.
Inside the apartment, there is no sour smell from the chocolate shop but you can smell on the common corridor. The bed linen is clean, kitchen hob/fridge is basic style but enough for me to cook a simple breakfast. Other utensils are also available and easy to find. Overall the bathroom is clean but it would be better if the host can attend to some mold marks in shower area/door and the fiber in the dryer.
Recommend to those with kids or young baby as there are toys and baby chair.
