Amazing location and a much more livable space than the photos may suggest:
---
INSIDE: The apartment is very well designed despite being quite small. It quickly feels spacious. The bed is big and very comfortable, and having both a desk in the corner and a coffee table in the middle makes the room great for two people. There are electrical outlets behind the sofa as well, which is useful. The kitchen is very nice to use, if a little understocked on cutlery. But it is a great little space to cook. The toilet and shower cubicle are also more than adequate.

TRANSPORT: An unrivaled place to be. If you want to use the train, you are close to:
Akihabara Station / Shin Okachimachi / Naka Okachimachi / Okachimachi
The gives you access to almost every major line in Tokyo!!!!! The Yamanote ring line that goes through all major stations, the Chuo across city line that also goes way out in to Chiba, The TX that can take you way north to Mount Tsukuba, numerous metro lines, this is transport perfection :) !!!

LOCAL AREA: Being close to Akihabara is great for some fun, especially for tourists, but also remember you are equally close to Ueno with it's amazing park and zoo. For general living, there are many many supermarkets, convenience stores 100 yen shops and really interesting odd shops in this area, it's kind of famous for that.
Plus, you will find amazing restaurants in Akihabara and Okachimachi, as well as great Izakayas in Ameyokocho and the other way, directly south from the apartment between Akihabara and Asakusabashi.
The area is brilliant, I can't say it enough.

NOTES: The apartment is up many narrow stairs and the entrance may require you to duck a little, so be careful with big bags. I did also find the sofa sagged a little in the middle, which I hope is fixed. Also, there is no TV, but if you bring a tablet or laptop, the wifi is great. On a positive note, there is a nice view out the window, and good aircon.

OVERVIEW: This is a very comfy, if small, living space that actually feels really nice to live in. I would recommend it for both long and short stays. However, the area is amazing! You are not to stuck in the middle of a crowded area, yet you have access to it all! Absolutely worth a try, I think you'll be impressed.
