We enjoyed our stay very much. It was great having so much spce and a nice combination of the traditional room with more conventional bedroom, bathroom, kitchen. We loved living in the suburbs among the locals rather than in the busy tourist areas. Nice walking along the river. Do explore the local area, there are lots of options for supermarkets and eating within walking distance. Using Google Maps makes it easy to work out bus and train options. With a pasmo/suica card, the local bus is as easy as the train and sometimes it is worth getting a fast train via Kamata instead of the local stopping train.
