Firstly I would like to thank the host for being considerate and let us leave our bags before the checkin time, he also responds very fast. The place is an 8min walk from otsuka station, yamanote line a 1 station away from ikebukuro station. There is a lawson and family mart nearby and a park for children. There is no elevator so it was a bit difficult to carry bags especially if your room is on 3rd floor like ours but still manageable. The bed is big and comfortable as well as the pillows. I suggest that atleast you can provide cups and spoon for the guests. I also noticed that the floor is a bit dirty so I messaged him that maybe the cleaner forgot to mop the floor. I also saw plastic spoon left behind on top of the bed.
Overall experience was good we still managed to have a comfortable stay with some little problems.
I would definitely consider staying again when I travel back to japan.
