    There's only one sink in the kitchen and no sink in the bathroom.

    Tiny apartment,fully equipped, in a lovely and very quite neighborhood, at less than 10 minutes walk to Hikifune station. Comfortable futon upstairs (quite steep) under a low ceiling.

    great location. only 2 min walking to 7-11, 10 min walk to Hikifune station. The room is compact, small but has all you need and very clean. It also very secure, 1 locked door in the front and there is locked door for you room. The neighborhood is quiet. The host is very informative and ready to help.

    Even though the apartment has a washing machine, I had trouble finding places to hang my laundry to dry, and even then it took days because the humidity of the rain outside also made the room quite moist.

    The apartment was very small, but it was enough for 2 people. We had everything we needed for a week in Tokyo, and getting around was easy with convenience stores and the train station not too far away.

    - affordable - nearby combini - was able to arrive before check-in time when I asked to, and was able to leave my luggage at the apartment while the room was still being cleaned - there was a folder with English instructions/information - short walk to the station - tokyo skytree, Asakusa and other attractions nearby

    Wish it had a tv, even a small one for a little entertainment after a long/ short day out. Instructions on how to use the washer, the keypad by the bathroom and the keypad by the mirror 😅

    It was in a nice and quiet location, very close to convenient stores and vending machines. Short walk to Sumida river where you can see Tokyo Skytree or go for a run/jog. Came with a microwave, small fridge, and washer to wash your clothes. Few restaurants close by, especially one that was very kind and welcoming even though my Japanese wasn't that good, on google maps its called もつ焼き ちっぺ.

    no curtains on the top window so it was really bright from the morning time

    100% would stay again! it’s perfect for a solo traveler and no one more as there isn’t much space but for the price it was perfect for me! there was a bathtub and everything!

    The only "bad" point is that these apartments are a little far from the station, like 15 minutes walking. So I wouldn't recommend it to people that have difficulty walking long distances. But besides that, they are very nice .

    The apartments are small but very nice with everything you need inside. The area is very quiet and there is a convenience store open all night long at one minute walking. It's at a walking distance from the Sky Tree (15 minutes) and the Sensōji (about 30 minutes walking).

    It rained on the days I wanted to play golf. As for the apartment there is nothing not to like.

    Everything one needs in a tiny apartment. Great location, and rail links. 10 minutes walk to Hikifune, 20 minutes walk to Asakusa. 3 mins to 7/11.

    Great solution for long stays.

    I have to commute to central Tokyo every day, so naturally the place is a bit far out. There's a loft bed which is also a pain, and it's overall just very small. Hard to find places to put my stuff, but considering the price I don't find this to be a huge problem.

    Very close to sky tree which is beautiful. The property itself is small but bigger than the average hotel, with a mini kitchen, microwave, fridge washing machine etc so great for long stays. There are also some things included like frying pans etc if you need to cook. Nearest station is Hikifune, but last trains run until later to Oshiage, which is walkable. If you need to be in Tokyo, this is one of the most affordable ways to get there.

    Great Micro efficiency apartment, Good Value for a solo traveler

    Location is a little out of the way from the major attractions of the city. The space is a little tight, for a solo traveler ok, but as times there I felt a bit cramped, I didn't see really a good place to unpack clothing into. No curtains on the upper window to block early morning light

    Complete apartment with laundry, kitchenette, shower, iron, soap, and futon. This is a kind of micro apartment with a loft bed over the bathroom and toilet. It's a quick walk to a 7 Eleven or family mart. Great loft

    small kitchen with only one hob. not suitable for proper cooking.

    Good location within 15 minute walk from Tokyo Skytree. may not be that convenient if you have a lot of luggages but acceptable for the price. some shops and restaurants nearby. The property had necessities.
