Overall a great place to stay! I can see how some might think it is small for 5. My family is taller and it was great for us 3. The bathrooms were a luxury as there were three! We each had our own. The stove was easy to use, as well as all appliances are there. If you have clothes to wash - the washer is pretty amazing, but do note that there is not a heated dryer. Be sure to give enough time for air dry clothes. There are many great places to eat near by. Many are cash only though so be sure to have enough Yen! An easy ten minute walk to the subway - from there you can go any where.
