Matasan was a thoughtful and attentive host. We deeply enjoyed our stay in his home, which is located just close enough to the trendier, younger part of the city that you never feel restless. A short walk from the bus stop to Kichijoji station, the downtown areas are easily accessible. Matasan made sure to alert us to all of the tourist attractions nearby and further out in Tokyo. Additionally, he went above and beyond as a host through his willingness to drive us to various locales, including the hospital when I fell ill. Utaesan, his wife, was also helpful when we needed to use the kitchen for cooking breakfast. An altogether peaceful experience was had.
