The apartment was as pictured, minimalistic and fairly clean. I was traveling with my babies and husband, and the apartment was not so baby friendly in my opinion.
First the stairs to get in don’t make it easy if you have babies, luggage, and a stroller. You have to carry all those up to the lobby.
Next, the check-in process was a bit of a pain, especially if you select English and it seems to give you only Japanese. It also doesn’t help to have babies waiting on you in a tiny lobby. After check-in we went to the elevator where we could barely fit the stroller and one person inside. It was tiny to say the least. It was nice once we entered and there was plenty of room for our little ones to walk around. There were a few cleaning issues I brought up to the host, and they were quick to respond, it was not a huge deal. I did see the rule book and it really felt very restricting and worrisome to have SO many rules and fines if said rules were broken. I was so worried that my babies would cry at a bad time or make too much noise. Turned out our walls were very thin and the neighbors were making plenty of noise at night. Glad we had the sound machine for our sleeping babies. Also the temperature at night was very cold even with the heater on, possibly due to the draft by the windows where the beds are.
Aside from the things mentioned above, the apartment itself was nice and it was in a wonderful location. I would say our stay was pleasant.
