Significant improvements are needed to turn this place with strong potential into a comfortable home. We stayed 11 nights at Hiz's place, on a business trip to Tokyo, and had a number of issues, which we shared with the owner during our stay.
The location of the flat is very convenient, off Cat Street, halfway between Shibuya and Meiji Jingumae. It is right across the street from the Trunk Hotel, which is very noisy with an outdoor restaurant and loud conversations of people gathering in front of the hotel till late at night.
The flat is spacious and bright by Tokyo standard, and is designed with taste, as shown on pictures.
However, the place was not clean when we checked in, with hair all over the tatamis and in the bathroom, as well as bits of plastic wrapping. I vacuumed the whole place, after emptying the vacuum cleaner and thoroughly cleaning the filters which hadn't been done in ages apparently. The grout in the shower is filthy and needs changing.
There are no shelves, drawers, hangers, rods or hooks to put any clothes away, which is very annoying for an extended stay on business. We had to go out and buy some hangers (and an iron) upon arrival and hang our clothes wherever we could.
Other equipment is missing: no shelves to put things away, hooks or towel rack in the bathroom and kitchen (mind you, there's no kitchen towel either), and the kitchenware and utensils are very limited. And don't expect anything for cooking except salt and pepper.
Several chairs were broken and not to be used.
The flat feels as if it hadn't been quite finished yet: spikes and wires jutting out from the ceiling, bulbs missing, a large TV screen (as shown on the pictures) but no signal, the wifi kept gingoff, electricty sockets dangling off the wall etc. Speaking of electricity, the sockets right above the sink and stove are a fire hazard and are not permitted there in many countries.
As a response to our comments, the owner refunded one night, which we hardly found satisfactory.
If you're only looking for a place to crash at night on a short trip to Tokyo, this place might be for you. If you have higher expectations, you will find that it is sub-standard compared to other Airbnb rentals.
