What people say:
“Your home is a great place to spend time in Tokyo! The facilities are A1, in excellent condition and there is plenty of everything you could ever need! We were very happy for the three nights we were there, and I would have no hesitation (and hope you would be happy) to stay in your home if we ever visit Shibuya again. I certainly would like to!! We all really were very appreciative that you met us at the station as you did, and gave us the comprehensive rundown both on your home and showing us the neighbourhood! Fantastic! And please do say ‘Arigato’ to your lovely cleaning lady for helping sort out the umbrella we left behind and then picked up later in the day, after we checked out. It is a valuable item and we was ecstatic to be able to retrieve it successfully. A great stay!! Best regards, Russ”
“Where do we begin?? This place is nothing short of expectation. I know space is very limited anywhere in Tokyo but you would be amazed by the size of living area they have in the house. First floor is all the three bedrooms, after entering, first door left is the master with the small TV, first door right is second bedroom with a queen size bed. Second door on the right is the two twin bed bedroom. Also this a half toilet with just the toilet and closet with clothes dryer. Second floor: living, dining and kitchen with a small out courtyard. Which was fantastic and not very common among home in Tokyo. There were plenty of space for two family traveling with children. They had children books and toys that were helpful with our little one!! In the kitchen there were plenty of appliances to use to prepare breakfast or meal for the family when we didn’t feel like eating out. Also come on handy when you’re trying to time adjust and wake up middle of the night looking for food. Once we got in the amenities were explained and then she was off. Everything in the house worked perfectly and we never had to bother the hosts during our 7 days/6 nights at the house. Short five minute you have a strip of small shops and local restaurants that good for that late night craving. I would highly recommend this home if you have the chance to book it. I’ve had my share of terrible service, so it was nice to find a trusted name once again.”
“Super location, super nice, super home, SUPERHOST. This lovely home is perfectly located and close to everything within walking distance and if you want to go a bit further the train station is only 5 mins away. Clean and fresh, the house feels like home, specially when you come back from a day of travelling its feels like coming back to such comfort and cosyness. Would highly recommend to anyone who is in Tokyo and want to get a wonderful stay and city experience”
“Super awesome place!! To be honest, best listing I have stayed in so far! The place had all the amenities you required and the interior was so beautiful. Apartment is very spacious and consists of 3 floors with a loft area. Great place for a family with kids or a group of friends. Convenient stores, mini marts and food places are all located around the station which makes it easy to get any snacks or drinks. Apartment is near to the train station, about 10 minute walk. Kitchen is well equipped with all essential cooking equipments and basic condiments, there is also a coffee machine for people who likes to have their own brewed coffee in the morning. Everything in the apartment has clear instructions on how to operate. Host is very responsive from confirmation of the apartment all the way till checking out. Super Cool listing which i would recommend ANYONE. I would definitely go back again if I go back to Tokyo!”
“Cannot recommend this place enough! An A+ host who went out of their way to accommodate and ensure we had a comfortable stay. I can honestly say this is the nicest Airbnb I’ve stayed in Japan and maybe elsewhere. House was perfect for two people that allowed for plenty of privacy. Everything in the house is virtually brand new as well the space was spotless when we arrived. If you’re looking for a place to lay your head at night with a central location to just about everything Tokyo has to offer -then book this spot immediately. Thanks again”
