The apartment has a great value and is located in a very convenient place. There are many shops and restaurants in the neighborhood, and the train station is about ~5 minutes walking. One of the main train lines of the station to get to the central Tokyo area is the Chuo-Sobu Line, so please be aware that this train can get very cramped during mornings and evenings. Leaving this aside, the place is a great way to get away from the busy city life and relax in a traditional tatami room. I would love to stay in Hirai again!
