The place is located in a small dark alley with barely any lighting at night. Luckily Japan is safe. It's actually 5 mins from Asakusabashi and AT LEAST 12 minutes from the main Akihabara area, which meant it was walkable but very tiring to keep traversing every day.
The house uses an old heating system that actually broke down while I was showering, and I had to wash the soap off with freezing cold winter water. Luckily the owner was able to go into the apartment to fix the water the next day.
Lastly, I'm a bit appalled by how the owner didn't allow us to just leave our luggages in the room until 1pm even though their check in time for the next guests is 3pm 🤷
The place was quite worth the money because it's clean and walkable to akihabara but note that it really is very very small and you do need to walk a considerable distance every day through quiet residential streets to get to it.
