I was extremely lucky and had the best time at Wakana's. I was there for 3 nights and feel now that I have made a good friend in Wakana. She was very generous and attentive throughout my stay, providing special treats like an aroma diffuser for the room & bath, coffee, many small things that really made me feel at home. She is genuinely excited to meet new people and is a light-hearted, fun, interesting person. I had many good laughs and late-night conversations with her and I truly miss Wakana and her wonderful family and house. The house is beautiful , very spacious and full of light. The cat Gin is a character. He silently moves around like he is the owner of us all. I became very attached to this cat and almost stole it when I left. The neighborhood is yound and lively, is full of young designer stores and thrift stores. Wakana helped me find my way around - finding the stores, restaurant recommendations, train stations etc. She actually even accompanied me to a few places, which was fun. I wouldn't consider staying anywhere else whenever I go back to Tokyo.
