The location is excellent. There are multiple convenience stores down stairs and quick access to the subway which is a couple of minutes away on foot. It is also right next to the entrance of Kabukicho - an excellent area for night life, restaurants, entertainment.
The apartment itself is very spartan in a rather worn building. Don’t be alarmed by the prison-like feel of the corridors. It’s not as bad once you step into the apartment. The interior of the apartment itself looked more run-down compared to the photos shown online. It would have been better to have a more updated and modern interior for the price we paid. Having said that you are paying for the location. There are two rooms each with two large double beds. The rooms are spacious for Japan. The apartment is on a main road so you will hear some traffic especially if you sleep in the front room facing the road. The second room is quieter and is darker. There are two showers and one toilet.
Our host was very quick to respond to our requests. We asked for a vacuum cleaner and it was delivered the same day. They also took our garbage because we asked about where to dispose of our children’s diapers.
