Our host was very helpful and super responsive. Any issues or questions we had were answered and resolved immediately. The apartment is very close to multiple convenience stores, Ikebukuro station and it’s central shopping area. It has a lot to offer and a great nightlife. The place is a little small which is expected of a Tokyo apartment but if you don’t have a lot of huge luggages, you should be okay otherwise you might have trouble bringing it up the stairs as there are no elevators.
