I cannot thank Daisuke enough for making me feel welcome on my first trip to Japan and Tokyo in particular.
Right from the start the communication was excellent in regards to directions to the apartment and then beyond with suggestions of places to eat and things to do in the neighborhood.
Shimokitazawa is a great lively neighborhood and the apartment is ideally located a short walk from the train station and surrounded by many wonderful places to eat and drink.
The apartment was perfect for a couple and having a washing machine is always a huge bonus when traveling.
The little patio/deck was nice to just hang out on and observe the goings on in the street below and to enjoy a bit of a view of the Tokyo skyline.
As host, you'll find it hard to find a better one than Daisuke.
As mentioned the communication was excellent from the start and even though he was away at a wedding he still took time to assist me with some missing luggage at the airport which was a huge relief.

In summary, you can feel absolutely confident you are getting exactly what is described and be looked after by a wonderful host.
