The neighborhood was very quiet. If you are looking for a touristy, hopping place, then this is not the place for you. We wanted a quiet locale and this was perfect. There was easy access to many subway lines and the train. Coming into a place where all things were labeled in Japanese was a little daunting. Pulling out the detailed instructions on everything that had been posted on the website as a welcome package saved us so many times. I personally slept on the pullout couch and it was very comfortable. I would recommend this location to anyone who asked. I was there with a good friend and her grown daughter. The space was a perfect fit for the three of us. I think a fourth adult would have been too crowded.
