I stayed at several Airbnb's managed by Hiroki and associates past 12 months. Here are my take aways: they are mostly for low-budget stays and there are many tradeoff's (ie, sanitation/vermine control/roommates): This particular one is slightly different in that while still being frugal -- no common area or minimal amenities -- it looks fairly new and relatively clean. Unlike other places, the cleaning lady actually comes twice/week and does a good job taking garbage out and keeping things clean in general, but, like Hiroke's all other places, it wasn't free from roaches and mice (two entered my room by eating through the wall in my room). Reporting them to host (Hiroki) did very little in my case. So those choosing to stay long-term prepare to do some DIY pest-control. Lastly, your roommates/fellow guests next door: for the most part, they are considerate and private, but I decided to move from the 3rd floor b/c the guest next door was a drug addict who smoked some stuff indoor from sunrise to sunset; and brought unannounced guests time to time. The shared bathroom can also be a slightly annoying scheduling problem when there are 2-3 guests occupying a room, which, in this particular case, means you are effectively sharing the same bathroom with 4/5 other people. Two things I like about this place: very close to Skyview Mall/Target and AC.
