I was the first person to stay at this apartment and you never know what it is in store the first time around, but this was a truly generous and wonderful experience! Previously, I had stayed in a few airbnb apartments around Tokyo but this was the first place to have a real neighborhood feel. The area has lots of small bars and restaurants, even an onsen public bath on the corner which are becoming harder to find in Tokyo.

The apartment was very cozy and nice view with the green of the house next door. Mehmet and Sato were wonderful hosts and even introduced me to their friend who is interested in art and we had a great day together around Tokyo. They were really attentive hosts who provided everything that was needed and even a surprise basic groceries. As I stayed for a while there is a coin laundry on the corner was easy to use and very convenient. They provided a portable pocket wifi which I was able to take around Tokyo as hotspots are few and far between, it was really fast and a life saver.

The accommodations provide a choice of western bunk beds or a Japanese bed in the loft, I choose the loft which was really comfortable. A very quiet place apartment and yet so easy to get to Shinjuku one stop way on the metro. It was closer getting there then when I stayed elsewhere in more ‘central’ locations of Tokyo. Also it is a short walk to a metro that went to Shibuya so both spots were always an easy options for meetings or nightlife.

Mehmet and Sato went out of their way to help me get settled and try to provide everything for their guests and have an eco-conscious approach. I would happily stay here again my next time in Tokyo and highly recommend it!
