Awesome Airbnb experience for me, good location of the apartment, many restaurants, convenient stores and super market nearby. The street is always animated a lot of student, very good atmosphere, The bed is very comfortable and the falt had all the amenities. Ill stay here again

Great place to stay, had everything we needed & the metro station is a few seconds away!

5 stars apartment located near Waseda university and few seconds walk from Waseda university , large bed and large bathroom. good access to the Yamanote line, the area is so nice many restaurant and super market just behind the building. The pocket wifi is awesome, i will recommend this apartment to my friends.

Nice flat in the center of the city, large bright and enough for a group of people, good place to sleep. The host is very kind and reply to our question very quickly, and he provide us a guide how to get to the apartment very easily, the check in and check out was very easy. Very nice flat.

Always great to stay here! Its my second time and all is good as expected

After we booked the flat, our host sent a message that included a welcome guide that was extremely helpful. It included directions of how to get from Narita airport to the flat, and we had no problems getting there. The host also stayed in communication with us whenever we messaged him for something. The view from the flat was great, and the neighborhood was quiet and pleasant with good places to eat nearby. The subway station is also about a 5 minute walk away, which is very convenient. The flat felt very cozy (like a home) and all of the beds were really comfortable. I definitely recommend staying here.

It is a great place for travel to Tokyo. Few minutes to Waseda University, close to subway lines, easy to go to other place. In the center of community so that it is quiet during night. As comfortable as your own department in Tokyo.

-Everything is neat -Room is clean and nice -Easy to locate -Convenient stores nearby

Super host! The property is clean, convenient, and really close to Waseda! Will definitely visit again if got chance.

This apartment is so great. It was clean, roomy and comfortable. The location is very convenient, close to the waseda train station which just within 4-5 minutes walking distance. Also there are supermarket, convenience store, different food restaurant around the house. The host is really nice and responded to our questions very fast. We had a really good stay here!

I am so happy we chose to stay at Kenji's place! The reviews and images really don't do this place justice. My husband and I were very surprised by how spacious and clean the location was. The neighborhood was also very safe and conveniently close to the waseda station. To top it off, we didn't physically meet Kenji but he was only a message away. Whenever, i had a question he would respond within seconds. Overall, I would strongly recommend this place to anyone. We felt like we were right at home.

Kenji+Shihoko place is very nice and the neighborhood is verygood

We stayed for 3 nights. The apartment was clean and conveniently located close to the subway station. Steve was very responsive to our inquiries.

Location is great, super close to subway station and easy to find (great instructions by Steve). Apt is clean and looks just like the picture. It is definitely very cozy as it's not very big. Will probably be difficult to fit 4 adults but 2 adults + children is fine. Steve is wonderful! Super helpful and responsive. Take exit 1 from the subway station.

Put simply, good location but small studio better suited for one person but definitely enough for 2 or less. Amenities are slightly off and should be readjusted but accurate for the most part. We didn't need to contact Steve, but felt like we could reach him easily. Definitely have Netflix or streaming service as the tv only had infomercials and people talking about random things etc. not much "entertainment" like cartoons or dramas or whatever you like to watch. The pocket wifi will be very useful if you don't pay for international data. Would most likely recommend it and stay again.

Okay place to stay if you are on your own and not bothered to be in the city. NOT for more than a person as the place is really small & no privacy if you are travelling with others (as the bedroom/living room/dining area is basically one small area combined). To be fair, everything is small in Japan so if you are looking for bigger places in central cities, you would be better off booking the popular brand hotels in Tokyo itself (more expensive though). Check-in is easy as the key/combination code are left beforehand for guests. Communication with the host is quite tricky as he doesn't respond that speedily. He does arrange things with you quickly when he does read the messages (does not pick up phone calls so don't bother calling). He communicates well in English so that is a HUGE PLUS as the language barrier is REAL in Japan (minimal people speaking/understand English & next to nothing is written in English in restaurants/shops).

Easy access to metro and have a lot of supermarkets nearby (Lawson, Family mart and 2 local big supermarkets). The room is nice and clean. It has everything you need that you can think about.

The stay is by far the best I've ever had in Japan. Steve is so generous that he picked me up in the station and drove me to the apartment. Showing me the surrounding and also gave me a wifi egg. If you ask Steve, ahead of time, he can also take you to some really amazing restaurants and the price is reasonable too. Overall, the stay was amazing. The house is clean, big, and also convenient. I will suggest anyone who wants to visit Tokyo or Japan, come and give Steve's property a try. I guarantee you will have an amazing trip.

It's my first time with Airbnb :) At first, I was a bit skeptical as it is very new to me! It was a GREAT experience & affordable for traveling (be it for leisure or business trip) after all :) I am glad that I have made the right decision. During my stay from 10-16 March 2016, everything is great! There was some problem with the heater but the host - Steve came to fix it on the same day. Thank you very much! Most of the things are available (toiletries, detergent, clothes hangers, fridge, washing machine, towel, utensils, etc.) in the apartment so it make things more convenient. I have requested for an iron and the host - Steve has kindly prepared the iron and iron board. I like the pocket WiFi as it makes my traveling so much easier :) It is unlimited data. It is nearby to eateries, convenience stores (e.g. Family Mart, Lawson), supermarkets, bookstores and subway station. All within walking distance. This makes my working trip a lot easier. The nearest exit to walk to the apartment is Exit 1. However, if you have an early flight to catch, please go to the opposite Exit (still within walking distance) for the first train at 5.09am to Haneda International Airport. You have to climb the staircases (a long way to go...if you have big luggage - haha). Anyway, for the apartment, it is on the ground floor. So, you don't have to climb a lot when you reach the apartment. It's convenient! Thanks a lot to Airbnb and the host - Steve! Cheers, Huey Min

We had a nice, comfortable stay here for our first visit to Tokyo! Though we never met him, Steve was very helpful and responsive during our stay. My husband and I are digital nomads so it's essential for us to have strong, fast, reliable Internet connection, and we were concerned about the WiFi situation here since portable "pocket WiFi" is all that is provided, but it worked perfectly. We tested the speed and it was 50mpbs! Nevertheless, before our arrival Steve dropped off an extra one so that we could each use our own, just in case! Great hospitality! However when we reached a data cap 3 days in, Steve resolved the situation by giving us additional pocket WiFis with no data cap. Everything worked great from there on out! The apartment is conveniently located in a quiet residential section. The neighborhood immediately surrounding the apartment didn't offer much, but the Waseda subway station is at the end of the block (probably 2-3 minutes door to door) and quickly takes you anywhere you need to go. Also at the end of the block is a gigantic grocery store with a wide selection, so that was nice. There's a post office, McDonald's, and a couple restaurants serving local cuisine very close by. The place is well stocked with sheets, towels, kitchen supplies, bathroom toiletries, etc. We appreciated that a lot! The AC and fans work great. My polar bear husband keeps it icy cold and he was perfectly comfortable here! We were hesitant about the Japanese style "shower room" but it really wasn't a big deal at all--easy and clean to use, and easy to get used to. Promise! The bed is quite small (I'd say it's an American full or double bed?). However, it is freakishly comfy. My husband is 6'3" and we prefer a larger bed usually, but it was fine--and I'm telling you, it's SOOO soft and comfortable! Yes, the place is a little small, but the space is well utilized and compartmentalized in true (organized) Japanese fashion. My only real complaint would be the lack of storage space. The closet is full of stuff and many of the cabinets/shelves are full too. We travel with two overstuffed carry-on suitcases and two large backpacks, and there was nowhere to store them really, but we made it work. I also wish there was a microwave, but it wasn't a huge deal to live without. Probably healthier too--we had to cook on the stovetop if we wanted food! Overall we had a very positive and comfortable experience. The apartment is clean and well kept.

Close to convenience store. About 10 mins walk to the nearest station. Other stations like Shinjuku and Ikebukuro and few stops away. Very clean place.

Loved this place! I had a very good first airbnb experience!

This house is very comfortable. Because it is beautiful and Kanako is very kind. I want to stay this house again.

The landlord is very good The room was very clean and tidy and it was very comfortable Very intimate and iron can hot clothes really great Three living space slightly smaller but the overall is worth it Originally thought that the sofa can play flat sleep but it seems not But not a problem sofa is still very comfortable There are plenty of convenience shops nearby There is a short distance from the nearest metro But the subway no elevator carrying luggage is a bit troubled All of a very pleasant stay hope to have the chance to stay again next time

nice room

Kanako-san's place is located in a quiet location within walkable distance to Tokyo metro. The apartment is small but hosts all the amenities and there are several convenience stores nearby. Kanako-san kept in touch via messages to ensure that our stay was pleasant. Will definitely recommend.

Kanako was a great host with a fast respond time and very helpful. The small and cozy apartment was very clean and comfortable. Although it is located in a secluded spot, it is is part of the Waseda neighborhood which is quite lively and nice and is a nice place to start exploring Tokyo. I enjoyed my stay at Kanako's apartment!

Kanoko's place is clean, cosy, and comfortable for 3, appreciate the basic essentials provided! It's about 10-mins walk to the nearest station, a minute walk to the nearest bus stop that brings you straight to Shinjuku. Kanako responds really quick and kept us informed during our stay. Definitely a wonderful stay for us :)

Maki's Place is great.. he really puts everything in detail. Provide towel, toothbrush, including a welcoming chocolate on the top of our bed. We found that the place exactly matched to the photos shown. Family Supermarket, restaurant and Train Station can be reached within walking distance. Eventhough the apartment lies on the side of main road, the place is not too busy and crowded. Perfect place if you need a quiet place to stay.

Very nice and clean!

I would like to strongly recommend Maki's house.Maki is a so warmhearted man,He helped me to solve any questions anytime,anywhere. The house is very clean and tidy,and very close to the subway.There are some convenience stores and restaurants nearby,it's very quiet around. Japan and the Japanese left me a very good impression.Looking forward to coming back to this country next time, I will book Maki's house again.

This is the best place It is very clean and comfortable. The feedback on the host is excellent. I recommend all the travelers in Tokyo.

The Apartment is great , clean and well equipped! The host is very friendly and well organized! Communication was also great... The place is well connected with the Metro line and is 20 min away from JR line. While walking to JR line you will cross a nice area full of nice restaurants. Overall experience was great!

A very nice apartment , clean and very comfortable with everything we need for convenience . You can also find some nice restaurant around as well . Thank you Maki for your welcome chocolate as well and we both very enjoy staying ar your place . See you next time !

It was very easy to access various parts of Tokyo, since the apartment is close to 2 different subway lines. Small supermarket is 1 minute away and we also discovered take away local food on the way to the Kagurazaka subway . We really enjoyed our stay at Maki 's apartment and would highly recommend if you plan to stay in Tokyo.

The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Really clean and lovely apartment! Very easy to find and the host left a portable wifi which was really handy... also very close to the metro station! Highly recommend.

Erika and Nick were amazing hosts and their studio was fantastic! We had never been to Tokyo before and therefore did not know where the best places to eat/visit were- thankfully we had Erika who was very prompt in responding to our questions and booking restaurants etc. The studio is close to all the sites, restaurants and shopping areas; and most importantly they offer a pocket wifi so getting around Tokyo was a breeze (don't know what we would have done without it!). The studio was clean, well furnished and the perfect size to use as a base. Erika and Nick were always on hand for any questions or any recommendations- would definitely suggest this Airbnb for future accommodation. Thank you for having us! Daniel and Georgia

The place was a little difficult to find for cab drivers as per other reviews but as long as you have a map to show them it should make things easier (which is what we did). Never met Erika, but checking in and out was super easy. As per typical Tokyo housing, the unit is much cozier than normal North American housing but has all the bare necessities. The area is a little north of the central Shinjuku area but is quiet and accessible by metro. Erika provided us a recommendation for fugu which we enjoyed. Loved the fact that Erika provided a pocket wifi. It was super handy having and saved us some money from getting a SIM card. The pocket wifi is good for outdoors and walking about but not so great in buildings and public transport underground (most metro stations had wifi so its okay!). Would recommend this place to friends.

Pretty good location. Convenient when travelling to tourist areas. Smaller than it looks in the picture but probably just a reality of Tokyo apartments. Had some issues at the start due to incorrect location and as such we checked in quite late. Erika is quite responsive although being new travellers, we could probably use a bit more help. All in all, will recommend this place for independent travellers or people who visited Tokyo before.

Lovely time staying here. Pocket Wi-Fi was fantastic but then stopped working after a few days. It was in Japanese so we couldn't fix it. The Waseda line is a little off with connections but otger than that it was a perfect place to stay in Tokyo. Erika was always very efficient with responses to any of our queries. Thank you

This is my first time to Japan, and it's been great.. I think the place is very clean, and also have everything you need for daily use.. And Erika also gave a detail description about how to reach the place.. The place it self really strategic, and quiet at night, which is good for rest.. I will recommend this place if anyone ask me.. Thank you Erika and Nick..

Perfect location and attractive surrounding areas. Close to two metro station. I will definitely coming back to stay Erika's next time in Tokyo. Just one tips, the studio might be a bit small for two girls if you plan to do shopping with big suitcase. Otherwise, it's perfect.

This apartment is just a 5-7 minute walk away from the Waseda station. It was very convenient having the station so close to travel. The apartment was great! The space was used effectively and essential amenities were included, including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and a hair dryer to name a few things. Erika sent a document right away with everything we needed to know for checking in and she was an excellent help when we had questions. If your looking for a place to stay in Japan with great cost and value, I highly recommend this one!

This place is good place to stay and Kanako had been very accommodating

Great location: 6 minutes from Waseda metro station, cosy place. Has everything you need for your stay in Tokyo ;) Kanako was a great Host, great communication with her. I hope stay here again soon. Gran ubicación: a solo 6 minutos de la estación Waseda que te conecta a otros lugares de la ciudad con facilidad, el departamento tiene todo lo necesario, ideal especialmente para 2 personas, muy limpio y acceso fácil. Kanako fue una gran anfitriona, te ayuda en todo y mantienes una gran comunicación Espero quedarme aquí nuevamente algún día :)

The appartment not big but very nice and comfortable. Very good lockation, nice and quite block. 5 minutes to subway/metro. There is everything in appartment. We had nice vacation in Japan.

Ok...

Pleasant host and place :)

We had a great stay at Kanako's. athe room was very cozy for the three of us. The place was about close to ten minutes from the train station but there were convenient store and aomefood places along the way. Overall, we had a very good stay.

kanako very helpful and fast response, good location, 6 minute walk to metro.. great place..

Great place to stay. The host was so nice and responsive.

The apartment is very nice,only 5 minute to the subway.Miss Ai is very very kindly,she prepared maps,cookies,water for us,and very care our living.The apartment is near by Waseda University, and there are two food markets.Very lucky to live here, thanks a lot!

Quiet neighbourhood and near the station. A few amenities such as supermarkets, convenient stores as well as eateries are also conveniently located within walking distance. As a host, Ai-san was kind and accommodating, and is usually prompt at replying messages, providing detailed response for whatever questions you might have.

AI provided a clear direction for us to approach the apartment from airport in late night. The location is good and convince to go everywhere. The full kitchen allowed us to prepare easy meals sometimes. The spacing room cabin let us keep luggages well and maintain an organized room during 10-day staying.

We had a great experience staying at Ai's place. The location is great, about a 5 min walk to the subway from, which is only one stop away from the Yamamote line. Quite peaceful neighbourhood. Ai was a great host. The umbrellas were appreciated.

This was a lovely place in a quiet neighborhood and we really enjoyed our stay. Ai had various recommendations for places to eat and to see, the sushi place was my favorite spot. She answered any questions we had and gave us very detailed instructions on how to get around. The wifi egg was great to have when you are going around the city. The apartment was very clean and there was extra towels and blankets as well. We really only have the best to say about our stay in Tokyo!

Very clean, functional apartment, and Ai-san's commitment to the comfort of her hosts is genuine. Highly recommended.

Great apartment in an amazing part of the (URL HIDDEN) was very accommodating making the visit pleasant. She went out of her way to help and always communicated quickly. The check-in/out process was clear and easy. The apartment has a nice feeling to it with nice light and a comfortable futon mattress. The neighborhood was a nice surprise. It is close to many amazing restaurants and coffee shops yet was quiet and peaceful. Access to other parts of Tokyo was very easy.

Very good apartment, very good experience!

The host canceled this reservation 13 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

*Very* Small, tricky to find, and a bit expensive for what you get. With costs comparable to that of a business hotel or net cafe, the amenities were far below. Could never get the shower to put out hot water despite being familiar with the control unit. Pictures are unquestionably the apartment in its best possible light. For the cost, would not stay again.

Good place to stay around the local :)

I had the opportunity to live in Cute House for four months, and had a great time throughout my stay. While the house may seem tiny for a visitor unfamiliar with the scale of Japanese residential living, upon closer contemplation it reveals an ingenious and efficient arrangement, and offers an intimate experience of the surrounding residential neighbourhood, with its sounds, smells, and sights. The upstairs tatami room, my favourite, is light-filled and beautiful inside-out, with traditional interior finishes and multi-directional views. The kitchen, while modest in size, is well-equipped for preparing simple meals. The neighbourhood, although primarily residential, offers all the necessities for daily life and is also well-connected the rest of the city. It only takes 15-20 minutes to get to Shinjuku by bike or train, and other urban centres such as Ueno, Tokyo or Ikebukuro can also be reached quite easily. Fiona has been a great host; she promptly responded to all of my messages, and also added a few amenities to the house during my stay (rice-cooker, microwave, washing machine). Highly recommended!

It's a nice room in Waseda area. You can find everything you need near the house. The house is old but all in readiness. And the Wi-Fi is really nice, very fast and always has a low ping.

Nice and quiet, very fast Wifi. Hope to live here next time.

Nice room size, good bed. Heating and hot shower working fine. Fast wifi! Convenient location. Good value for money!

This apartment is very quiet & looks just like the photos. Waseda is a great area. I would stay there again.

Good place. Very quiet and safe. WiFi is fast foo.

Good, quiet, and cheap place to stay if you're just looking for a place to sleep. House is very cold in the winter, only your room is heated. Everything else, kitchen, bathroom, etc are all as cold as outside.

Check-in procedure was easy, Rio met us at the nearest station and explained everything. The room is ok if you plan to get up early, spend Your morning,day and evening outside and just crush there at night, and You need to stay in this particular neighbourhood for some reason. The room / bed was clean; there is a new AC unit in the room; Wifi is fine. The house itself is old (not in a "good old" way") and not comfy at all, do not expect much, especially bathroom-wise. The window faces a wall, so no sunlight at any time of the day. But it is up to the price, I guess.

convenience and cheap.I think It's a good place to stay.

Très bien accueilli, chambre très confortable et plutôt spacieuse pour le prix et bien placée. Je recommande vivement !

I arrived late in Tokyo at a time where the host couldn't check me in at the flat. Therefore they were very helpful in guiding me to their guesthouse. The instructions provided was clear and straight forward. The house is clean! and comfortable. If there was a problem, like accidentally locking myself outside, it was dealt with very quickly. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. Location is great, close to where I work. Close to Waseda station, travelling in Tokyo is easy. All the best :)

The room was simple. The neighborhood was really really great. Easy access to metro and nice restaurants and coffee shops.

My stay at this guesthouse was excellent. It's an old Japanese-style home in a very safe neighborhood near Waseda University and very close to the metro station. Getting to the guesthouse from the airport wasn't a problem either. Patrick the guesthouse manager met me at the metro station and checked me into the house. You get your own room that has plenty of room for your bed and belongings. The kitchen and shower are shared by the other tenants (I believe there are five rooms in total?) and there are two toilets for the upstairs and downstairs tenants. The other tenants are very nice and easy-going - mostly everyone works/studies so they're out and about doing their own thing, but I really enjoyed their company when I caught them in the kitchen or on my way out. The walls are super thin, but everyone in the house was very respectful and mindful of each other to keep noise and disturbances down. My stay was very enjoyable from beginning to end. I would definitely stay again should I return to Japan.

All good!

it was simple but comfortable and for the cost was exactly what i expected.
