Even though our vacation was short, we felt like we were actually experiencing life in Tokyo by staying in these apartments. Both were very cute and clean. As parents we felt it was exactly like having an adjoining room for the teenagers to do their own thing.The apartments are very walkable with convenience stores, coin laundry, shops and restaurants nearby. Even the Koiwa Train Station is only a 12 minute walk. At the train station is a shopping mall with a supermarket, bakeries, restaurants, and everything else a tourist would need.Although we don't speak nor read Japanese, communication with the host was easy since we just need to push one button to translate our messages.If we ever get a chance to visit Japan again, we will definitely stay here. We gave our vacation 10 stars out of a possible 10!
