We're a family of 5, all adults. We stayed for a week and the place added great memories to our trip:
1. instructions on how to reach the apartment was spot-on and easy to follow
2. it is an easy walk to and from the train station
3. between the apartment and the train station are numerous convenience stores, restaurants, thrift shops, izakaya and commercial places that allowed us to experience local daily life
4. the apartment has all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay, from complete kitchen appliances and utensils to separate toilet and bath. It's layout as shown in the pictures is big enough for 5 adults to conveniently move around
5. nearby is the Naka River where we ran/strolled along the river banks.
The icing on the cake was the K Family, who extended hotel-like service:
1. they responded quickly to messages
2. they provided tips on places to go to
3. A surprise to us - everyday the unit was cleaned, trash taken out, towels replaced, like how hotels do it. We didn't experience the same service in the previous AirBnB places we've stayed in.
4. we felt their sincere warmth and hospitality when they checked in on us. It gave us the confidence that we can seek assistance from them in case of emergency.
Not one of us have negative comments of our stay at the Cedar apartment of the Zen house. All five of us are giving 2-thumbs up. We'll be recommending it to friends and relatives as we'd surely book this unit again when we're back in Tokyo.
