This was our first airbnb stay and boy did Aiko set the bar high for what we will look for in our future airbnb stays. Even before booking, she was already very responsive in all our queries.
Check in was very convenient since you dont have to get the key anywhere else. Someone is there to give u the key, anytime of the day. When we got in, everything was provided for - from water to toiletries to extra blankets and pillows. Her toiletries are not just the usual ones. She even provided facial wash! And with the note that if we need any replenishment, we can just message her. We never had to buy water from outside. Super generous!!
Location-wise, it is about 10 mins away fr uguisidani station and about 5 mins aways fr iriya station. Lots of food options around, from 7-eleven, family mart, local bakeries, and restaurants.
Only thing i wish we had was a (clothes) dryer. There was washing machine provided, but since it has been raining when we were there, we also couldnt leave the clothes to dry in the terrace. There is a 24hr laundry shop just across the street though, if you are desperate.
Overall, I highly recommend Aiko's place! Room 202 is perfect for 2 people. Love, love, love our super host!!!
