Premier Host

Comfy, convenient, cool

We would 100% recommend this studio apartment to anyone wanting to spend comfortable time in Tokyo metro area. The location was fantastic; so close to the station which affords easy access to so many other places to explore. Of course, Shimo-kitazawa itself, despite development, has lost none of its charm. It is a dynamic, exciting yet comfortable neighbourhood to base yourself in. Great shopping, coffee and food surround you in every direction. Light sleepers may rarely notice the sound of folks nearby, but it's nothing ear plugs can't address.Most of all what struck us about the apartment were all the many many thoughtful touches the host included, so that you really felt at home. No "I wish I'd packed that" or "we'll need to pop to the shops for this" - everything was considered. And if you want to see what I mean, check inside the "red mug" when you arrive!A big thank-you to our host.Please book and enjoy as much as we did!
