Stayed here with three of my friends. A wonderful experience in Tokyo. We really enjoyed our stay there. A truly homely, private, quiet house in a safe neighbourhood. Even safer since it is located near to the hosts' own house for added assurance and security. Quick access to food and convenience stores nearby, as well as walking distance from the subway station. Very pleasant and kind hosts. They would always be respectful of our privacy yet be proactively offer their help. I do not regret renting this place, and I would absolutely book here again if I were given another opportunity to return to Tokyo.

Akane & Mitsu provides a very clear road map, so that it is easy to reach and very reassuring. This is what I saw one fall in love with the house, very Japanese, very clean, very comfortable. Warm table, so my family and I are very happy night sit together and chat. Thank Akane & Mitsu.

Akane and Mitsu are the sweetest most helpful people on the planet. They made our experience in Tokyo a breeze. I stayed at the Old Folk House with my five month old baby and husband. We loved staying in their home. It had everything that we needed. Akane even provided a diaper pail. The location was very convenient, close to a supermarket, a convenience store and a laundromat. I was surprised and delighted to be able to experience a slower, quiet side of Tokyo. Akane and Mitsu made us feel like we were close friends or family. I will certainly recommend the Old Folk House to anyone I know that will be traveling to Tokyo.

Akane and Mitsu were very welcoming without being overwhelming and were very attentive - a very charming couple. The traditional Japanese home is spacier than regular apartment units and cozy to even chill at home. It provides everything on the listing and beyond to ensure comfort, as if you were visiting a friend's home. The neighborhood is a vibrant old Edo district, presenting a different side of Tokyo than your usual tourist traps. The Sumiyoshi subway stop is not too far, connecting to both the Toei and Hanzomon lines. Japan railway pass holders could take the hike to JR Kinshicho, I suppose. Highly recommended for the culturally sensitive traveller.

I highly reccomend this stay in Tokyo. I felt so welcomed to the city after meeting Akane and Mitsu who are such kind people. There is a reason why they have been voted super hosts. The house provides a great base to explore Tokyo. There is such attention to detail from a heated toilet seat to floor heating under tables. A beautiful experience of japanese style living.

We were pleased to find this accommodation for our first nights in Japan and Tokyo. Akanene and Mitsu are excellent hosts who made ever effort at making our stay easy. The area is full of interesting and delightful micro restaurants and bars that are friendly and provide excellent food. We particularly enjoyed the Soul Bar on the main road to Sumiyoshi Station. Once we learnt the ways of the Tokyo train system, it was very easy getting to wherever we wanted to go.

Great place, large size compared to everywhere else we stayed in Tokyo and indeed Japan. Yes, house was drafty but we expected this (winter, previous reviews). Heating once it got going was effective, table warmer was great touch. Easy to find from local subway station. The walk was not long, although we tend not to travel with much luggage. We'd definitely stay again, albeit next time aim for another time of the year. Thanks again.

This host was really warm-hearted and hospital. The house was quite cozy. Best trip experience ever.

Alfie's place is a great place to stay if you're in Tokyo. The location is on a quiet street not far from shops, restaurants, and the metro. Alfie and Kenji were friendly and easy going. It is nicely decorated townhome with modern decor. I definitely recommend.

Alfie is nice, hospitality is just the place for our big boxes dragged four people a bit far from the JR line, very quiet residential Thank rich breakfast hospitality.

This was a great place. It's very clean and relatively spacious. The interior is nicely done and therefore you directly feel at home. The place is a little remote (10 minute walk from Kanamecco station) , but I didn't mind because the connections to shibiya and shinjuku are great. The place was a little cold in winter, but that counts for the whole of Tokyo. People don't isolate and switch heating off when they leave home. After 10 minutes of heating all is fine.

Very nice place, makes you feel like home. The location is near to Kanecho Station, one stop after Ikebukuro. You can spend one day nearby. Kenji and Alfie were so kind. Wish to see them next time.

After a recent stay of one week we highly recommend a stay with Alfie and Kenji. Their home is clean, well maintained, stylish, well considered for guests and very good value. The bedroom is well equipped with comfortable bed and there is plenty of wardrobe storage space. The neighbourhood is friendly, traditional and very quiet for Tokyo and a short walk to the subway. Alfie and Kenji are helpful with recommendations and advice but provide plenty of privacy for their guests. The level of hospitality is excellent- fresh clean towels every second day, freshly brewed coffee each morning and mobile pocket wifi to take with you each day.

Alfie's apartment was great! It's conveniently located near a 7-11, local restaurants and a subway that allows easy access to basically the entire east-side of Tokyo. The apartment is exactly as described with all the comforts of home. Both Alfie and Kenji are swell guys who went out of their way to assist and make us feel welcome.

Great stay! Alfie and Kenji has a beautiful home, it was modern and extremely clean. Great features such as a washing machine and a dryer, WIFI in the house and a pocket WIFI when traveling Tokyo and heating in the bedroom. If you don't mind sharing a home then this place is great. Japanese houses are built to hear things, unfortunately you sleep on the bottom floor so you may hear movement during the night and morning, aside from that it's a really nice stay.

This is a wonderful house so comfortable ,clean ,well-equipped and in a great location near Kanamecho station and convenience store. Alfie and Kenji are very accommodating. Would stay again when in Tokyo.

Kawano ' s family is very informative host they gave very useful and enough information even we came late they are so kindness to find us(URL HIDDEN)All prior ibformation before trip is really useful and correctly . They are response very fast.

Great house, great landlord. Close to the Keisei-Tateishi Station

Kawano-san was extremely helpful in facilitating our stay in Japan. Not only were directions from the airport (Narita) detailed enough, the directions around Katsushika provided us with great food, shopping and sights to see. The apartment's proximity to the local train station was unbeatable, possibly one of the best places to stay around Japan. The apartment was just as we imagined it to be, cozy enough for a group of four. While its decor makes it extremely pleasant to sleep in, the surrounding is pleasantly quiet enough, without the piercing sound of sirens to wake you from deep slumber. We thoroughly enjoyed our 6D5N stay in Kawano-san's apartment to the extent that if we were to visit Japan again, Kawano-san's apartment would definitely be one of the top accommodation choices for us again. Thank you for the great hospitality that is truly Japanese! ありがとう!

Good experience, we were only two, but it has room for more, everythink was clean, and new. Very friendly hosts.

the house is pretty cool

Great! There can be problems and needs immediate help with the process. Have the opportunity to return to live here in

Perfect host. The communication was very good and responsive. The Kawano family is extremely friendly and made sure all our needs were met. The apartments were very clean and even our towels were exchanged on a daily basis. A few extra perks were in it too. Great place of you travel in a group that is intimate. Like close friends or family. If you don't mind changing trains a couple of times to get to Tokyo's hotspots, the area is very calm but offers everything you need on a daily basis. From food courts and amenities- everything is just a stone throw away. We'd book again. Thank you.

Great room, as shown in the picture. Host was really friendly hahaha. Love the room and the interiors, location was slightly out of town but that I like it, the quaint neighborhood of Taiteishi. AWESOME.

Super appartment in a really nice area. Creativity in decorating and handling the small space. One lttle remark: the bed is really small for two tall Dutch persons!

LP provided us with something you cannot usually just buy: a friendly reception from a local who is happy to provide guidance, recommendations, and tips which ultimately saved us time and money. This is above and beyond the place itself, which is adorable, design-oriented, hand-crafted, and full of charm — think Design Within Reach + Tiny House movement. Highly recommend

Lp and John are fantastic hosts! They are so kind and generous that you feel like home. I was lucky to chill out several times with them and enjoy all the tips. They made my stay an unforgettable experience. The neighborhood is for me the best part of Tokyo, easy access with a multitude of very good addresses. If you want a amazing stay in Tokyo, a full journey of laughter, happiness and adventure, do not hesitate: GO to the sweet Lp, the crazy John and the cute Psycho!

I can absolutely recommend John and LP's gorgeous place in Shibuya. Their attention to detail is impressive and they are fantastic hosts. Their studio has a unique Japanese charm. They made me feel welcome from start to finish. The place has everything you need, and is conveniently located in walking distance from the trendy neighborhoods of Daikanyama, Shibuya and Ebisu. Along with all other reviewers I have to agree: this has been one of the best Airbnb experiences I've had so far.

The apartments are located very close to the Shibuya district, within ten minutes walking time. The rooms are very design sense, see the owner's intentions and interest in life. Quilt a little bit small, but does not affect use. You can also use the blanket inside the door Oh ~ small cabinet with a full range of daily necessities of life; house appliances also quite wide, but did not find an electric kettle pity oh. Terrace planted small plants, where you can smoke on the wall CD player ~ I like ~ garbage needs to be put in the category of trash next to the restaurant downstairs - if you want to experience the local life around Young blocks, shopping in Shibuya, it would be a good choice ~

Evee though I had never met any of John &Lp. But I still feel very close with them. If u want a dreamlike trip, please choose them. intimate hotel and quiet atmosphere, look forward to seeing the next.

LP and Jon are great hosts who are easy to communicate with for any reasonable needs. When we arrived, everything was clean and presentable, along with a personalized welcome note. The room looks lovlier than in pictures and is an intelligently, well-designed, comfortable space that's a simple 8-10 minute stroll to Shibuya Station. Location is key when in Tokyo because an easily accessible place highly contributes to a great trip when your home is a short walk away... extremely recommended! Thank you for letting us stay, LP and Jon!

The host canceled my reservation 9 days before arrival.

The area is very peaceful and local which I am just looking for staying. Everything in the place is quiet nice and comfortable and easy to use (or make the guests feel convenient). It is 5 mins walk to the subway and serveral 24 hour mini markets are just around. It's really a good choice to stay if you are a small group like 3-4 persons. and the most important is the hosts are very kind and did their best to guide you and make your staying wonderful.

The first day of the last two days to Tokyo and have chosen to live in the host family, ideally, are a short distance from Aoto Station and Tateishi Station, to the airport and attractions are more convenient. Infrastructure facilities, a washing machine and a variety of kitchen utensils, feeling of home. The landlord is very enthusiastic, timely answers to the various questions, and when we went to Kyoto to send tram stop, rainy day umbrella also prepared to each of us. Around the house there are quasi drug stores and convenience stores, it is convenient. Good housing!

Koji and Nami were just very kind and fun host, they know how to welcome guests ! Thanks Nami for the free laundry service and drive us by car to subway station. Thanks Koji for the welcome and all informations we asked you during our trip with you. We recommand to everyone booking appartment with Koji and Nami, great services and very cheap price !

The host are really nice and considerate, they were provide lots of sightseeing information and the restaurants near around. Also, they are not tired for asking what they can help for us. The most impressive thing is when we arrived, Koji specially bring the Chinese tourist booklet and juice for us even it was raining! The house was tidy and cozy. Everything was complete. I think I would like to live in this place when I visit Tokyo again. And It was really worth to recommend.

Mr. Koji is a very friendly and kindly host. The quilts and beds in the room are extremely comfortable so that we all have a good sleeping quality every night. Besides, the kitchen equipment and tableware are very comprehensive as well,makes us feel like we are at home.

We stayed for 2 nights at first then decided to extend one more night. Apartment was amazing with all the equipments and furnitures, especially the neighborhood, Tateishi. Close to local market and train station. Koji was really helpful even drive us to JR station. The apartment quite small like any other place in Japan yet all things are functional and perfect.

koji and also Mr. nami T. Their house too praised! Very quiet and very comfortable accommodation, a short distance from the station, there are restaurants, a supermarket, drug store, audio shop nearby, everything. Most of them need to say is that it was very good, very interesting. Every time we tell intimate interchanges traffic routes, go to the convenience that we also take the Airport Express Line Station. Look forward to the next meeting, the next time you want to drink a meal together :)

Koji,Nami,Mr.T ...they are amazing people who get this place in Tokyo. That will be your right choice stay in Tokyo. My family all take beautiful memory from here.☺ Terry

What a treat! If you like unusual housing look no further! This well equipped, comfortable, and cool as hell caravan is perfect. Close to the subway(2 mins away walking) and only a short ride away from Shibuya and Shinjuku, I loved staying there. The commune has loads of food trucks (on your actual doorstep) to cater all diets, from German sausage to vegan but more importantly including a great beer stand! Oh and the team is super helpful and quick to reply to emails. I will definitely stay there again next time I'm in Tokyo.

Quirky little spot. Warmly welcomed and introduced to the area. It's a squeeze, as you can imagine, but if you're prepared for it it's fine.

The house is unique but personally feel that the price is a little high behind the bar street environment is very convenient high tall people be careful because I lived seven meters has been hit many times the door ha ha ha

The coolest place in town! Blue bottle cafe is next door! I will come just for relax. PS: read the details for how to get in after 10PM, it will take you some time if you do not know how to get back from other entrance.

I stayed in the Caravan for two weeks - the first Airbnb'r and the first person to stay that long. Great time! It's small but good - the location is amazing. Central to everything, and walking distance from a huge amount of tourist attractions and shopping. The Caravan team is friendly and approachable - my (only minor) issues were taken care of promptly. I've given the team feedback and they're going to be improving the Caravan, but one thing isn't easily fixed. This is in a fairly high traffic area - especially on weekends. People are curious - a Caravan is an unusual sight. Be prepared to be in pictures if you're sitting with the curtains open or outside the caravan. That said, the place is emptied and locked up by about 10pm, so you have the space to yourself. The privacy here is not too good. Otherwise, great experience - even in February. Warm and cozy.

This place was excellent, Jesus was kind, friendly and available to us, showing us around the place and introducing us to cool designers working in the space. The space is quirky and cool, and I would stay there again. There's also a great duck soba place down the street, a bath-house and Cafe Kitsune which has the only correct matcha affogato that I am aware of in the entire world.

I had a lot of fun staying in the caravan. It had everything I needed for a comfortable and unique stay. The location is incredible and the hosts were always in touch throughout my stay. I highly recommend this experience for any single or couple looking for a fun and unique stay.

What a cool little airstream in such a neat little community! Loved the surrounding shops and food stands, and the warm welcome we got from Jesus. We stayed for one night, which was perfect for us. Such a unique experience.

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We loved staying in Yohei's apartment! The apartment is very clean and stylish and has everything you need for a short stay. The location was also perfect, very close to Shinjuku station which connects to almost every neighborhood. We also really appreciated that Yohei provided a mobile hotspot that we could take with us while sightseeing.

Nice, cozy apartment in Shinjuku. It was very easy to reach public transport, a Supermarket, combini, and various restaurants are also close by. The check in and check out are very conveniently handled. The apartment offered everything one needs, from kitchen and cooking utensils to bathroom needs. The portable wifi is perfect in order to stroll around Tokyo, away from the public hotspots. It is easily one of the most convenient and comfortable things to have. The apartment is kept cool by a.c. so you can relax and chill after a long day. All in all it offers everything for a memorable and enjoyable stay.

My stay in Yohei's apartment was lovely. The space is great--beautiful, clean and quiet. The neighborhood is super central to downtown, sights, and nightlife. Yohei was really accessible and helpful. It was also a great price for an entire apartment.

Yohei is very friendly and helpful. Very prompt in his replies. Easy checking in and out of his place

Very convenient location and close to Family Mart and other amenities. Pocket wifi also a big plus!

Yohei was very responsive and helpful. His apartment was conveniently located and easy to find thanks to detailed information provided by Yohei. Overall a very pleasant experience!

The hostel was great and much cleaner than the picture. Refrigerator, has got everything you need in a microwave oven, washing machine, etc. lives. Pocket WiFi is provided and is given them very helpful. The convenience store was right side in the front door. Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the LOVE sculpture was also a short distance away, was part of the Tokyo moved here and there in the near Nishi-Shinjuku Station. Tokyo trip was good but the hostel was also very satisfied seureowot.

Excellent location! About 15 minutes walk from the west exit of Shinjuku station. We walked the tunnel from the west exit towards the high rise buildings, made a right upon exiting the tunnel, then left past the police station, and then left on that street (after the 7-eleven) where Yohei's apartment is located. There are several minimarts/small restaurants along the way from the train station. The apartment was newly renovated and a perfect size for our family of five. The bathroom was big for a Tokyo apartment. Yohei was an excellent, responding to our queries right away. I highly recommend this place. We will definitely come back to Yohei's apt. Thank you so much, Yohei!

It's an amazing deal to stay in the middle of Tokyo for solo travelers! There are a bunch of hotels, Japanese restaurants and cafes nearby, but it's pretty quiet at night. They have everything you need in the place so it was very comfortable to stay for three days. If you are looking for a budget-friendly place in the middle of the city, here is the best place!

I stay 2 nights in Mr. Minagawa's flat. The flat is right next to Higashisinjuku station (oedo line Exit A1?) and made it very easy to get to and from all of spots where you want to go. Mr. Minagawa was extremely clear with all information with check-in, made the entire process seamless. He is also very humble and friendly, replied each request in detail. About the room, clean, and comfortable (especially very quiet place here). It was a great experience for me to stay here, and I recommend. -- 地點十分地便利(大江戶線A1出口?),前往新宿幾乎用走的也能到。房東非常用心地整理了check-in的任任何資訊,令人安心。房間本身乾淨舒適並且相當安靜,推薦推薦! -- 新宿まで歩いてもいけるくらいとても便利なところで(地下鉄だとたった1駅)旅行者にとって時間は大切ですね!皆川さんは親切でなんでも答えてくれて、すごく安心感を与えてくれました。部屋自体もキレイですし、暖房と加湿器も揃っています。すべて文句無しいい経験でした。お勧めします。

It was a fantastic stay, the room is nice and clean. Minakawa was friendly &very polite and he offered to pick me up at the metro station. Cool guy and 5 stars about the experience.

The room is very clean Location is also good And minakawa is very kind. It was a good trip.

minakawa is a really nice guy,and the room is clean and convenient,nice trip in tokyo!

Minakawa Yuji is a super great host. Soooo nice . He made a link shows how to get to apartment clearly. He make coffee to me and we go breakfast together. we chat a lot. It is really good. The house is very clean and sweet. and the location is great. Just take few minutes to station. Thanks for taking good care of me. See u next time!

The host is the best part of the trip as he is always a phone message away to answer your questions. He is really kind and polite. The place is not so far from Shinjuku and near the red light district of Tokyo. I didn't know that last part, and it was a let down on my part. I would recommend knowing this fact beforehand. However, it doesn't affect your stay that much, since the neighbourhood seemed pretty safe to me. You should highly consider this accommodation if you are a young couple of a single traveler.

My best airbnb experience so far! Minaka-san is beyond helpful. Waited for at the subway to show me the way to his place. Helped me with Japanese inquiries, helped forward my luggage. The room is standard Japanese size. Which is enough for me. You share the kitchen/bathroom and toilet with Minakawa-san. It's really clean and there is some free basic stuff like water and coffee. Oh and the building is really close to a subway and easily found d. First floor too. Thanks for a great experience. I'll see you when I arrive back in Japan!

Great place. It's more than just an apartment or home stay. It's an unforgettable experience not only about living in the space but also wonderful communication with locals and Teso.

Good Place for the price!

Very easy to spend simple. Very attended also easy from the station. Shower and sink is located was also thankful.

Clean is room ♡ Hiromi's friendly (* ^^ *)

The worst hostel I've ever stayed in. No space, no common area where the guest can interact with each other, lighting is poor, no place to put your luggage, or cook, and everything is tightly spaced. The only good thing is the wifi. If you're just looking for a bed with a root then go for it. But if you want a good experience during your stay and meet fellow travelers, forget it.

Chinese to use it. I lived here six nights, different people see the feeling is still very wonderful. Need to be reminded that this is a co-ed housing, care should be carefully considered. Around Shinjuku Kabuki various looks just twenty minutes, the traffic is very convenient, in short, a person traveling, then it is recommended

Good location it was good, clean facilities. When I try to relax and jamman Agency will consider great for a cheap price.

Location is very good, is very crowded

Nice B & B, accommodation and environment in general, but a good location can walk 20 assigned to Shinjuku Station, roommates mutual respect, high cost

Minami was very helpful to let me check out later than agreed. And location of house is good. However I felt the general cleanliness of the house could have been much better.

Super convenient!! I like the serenity of yoyo gi and close by shinjuku and shibuya. Abt 1-2 mins walk to JR station. Despite the hot water supplier was not that good, it was quite a pleasant stay overall.

Nice cosy apartment very near to subway and host provided very clear and simple instructions for check-in and check-out. The bathroom is quite small thou. Nevertheless, thank you Hiroshi!

The best location, the right size for two people!

Nice location, close to yoyogi subway and walking disatance to Shinjuku. Very Nice room, very designer like apt. Lots of amenities around. Like this place :)

Location was 12/10. Tons of restaurants, 20 second walk to train and rhe place was clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay again and refer. Hiroshi was quick to respond and simple insstructins for checkin/out

Excellent location, less than 5 mins away from station, 7eleven in the corner and food. Room space is nice with tables, overall experience is very pleasing.

I just left Hiroshi's apartment this morning and I had a great 8 night stay! It was so central - 2 min walk to Yoyogi Station, 5 min walk to Shinjuku Station, I even walked to Harajuku & Shibuya (but I love walking) Can get to anywhere you want to using the Yoyogi or Shinjuku stations Lots of coffee shops a few min walk away if you love your morning coffee The ramen right across from the apartment and the one on the corner were great! The room was bigger than I was expecting for Tokyo, the bathroom is small but fine for me Heater worked great even when it got down to 0c, a hot water bottle in the bed would be nice Just be careful sitting on the bed in dark clothes, lots of fluff comes off on them Hiroshi answered all my questions so quickly during my stay, I couldn't find a coin laundry nearby so just hand washed what I needed in the bath Was a perfect stay, just 8 nights wasn't enough :( I'll definitely come back!

This listing is located at very close to Yoyogi and Shinjyuku station. Simple but equipped with necessary items for business travelers. Those who want to stay around Shinjyuku area for biz trip, this place is one of a better choice.
