The first thing to highlight is the amazing and prompt responses we had throughout our month-long stay with our host. Never did we have any communication problems or issues solved within a few hours. Secondly, the place is in a great location and is relatively close to everything in a Tokyo sense. It is near two major train stations, but both are around 10 minutes away. If you're sightseeing, Sky Tree is practically in your backyard. Everything else is between 30 to 50 minutes away by train. The area is full of restaurants, shopping centers, convenience stores (across the street), and supermarkets. At no time did we feel unsafe when walking back to the place at night. I even recommend you do a night walk from Kinshicho to Oshiage (Sky tree) station. Thirdly, the pictures of the place were very accurate and you can tell that it was recently renovated.
The accommodation is great for one or two people but I foresee it being a little tight if four people are all in the apartment with their luggage at once. The kitchen is small and equipped with basic items to cook and eat. We had to buy a few more kitchen items such as big bowls (for noodles), a knife, and a cutting board in order to prepare some of our meals. However, if you plan to eat out for every meal, then this works great.
Here are some tradeoffs for the convenience and price of the location. The apartment is right next to a major firehouse and hospital, which means there are always some sort of sirens going off. Also, there is a metal fabrication/welding shop next to the apartment building. During our stay, the shop started welding around 9:30 and the smell of soldering was quite pungent even with all the windows closed. If you are a light sleeper, or if you’re sensitive to smell, you might want to look elsewhere.
Overall, if you're looking for an awesome deal with style and nothing too fancy, this is your place. We were overall satisfied with our experience.
