Haruko-San is an amazing host, and her lovely home is in an absolutely lovely neighborhood. Jiyuugaoka (her neighborhood) is quaint and. lively- full of fun bars, restaurants, shopping, and things to see. Her home is just an 8-minute walk to the metro, which was incredibly convenient. Haruko herself was a kind and attentive host and cooked us a lovely breakfast on our first morning of staying with her. She was a thoughtful and helpful host and even came to the train station to pick us up. This was a great spot for us to stay in while visiting Tokyo. My friend and I were barely home (mostly out and about exploring), so Haruko-San's home was a great spot for us. The room we stayed in was small but extremely clean and neat. It can be a little chilly in the winter, so bring some warm clothes to sleep in if you are visiting during the winter months. Overall a wonderful stay- I will be back!
