5115 Clean And Comfortable House YANAKA

The house was clean, comfortable and in a great location. Less than 5 min walk to supermarkets and station. Perfect for family with teenagers, enough room for everyone to have some space. Excellent kitchen, bathroom and clothes washing/drying facilities. Would definitely recommend.

We had an excellent stay for two small families with a total of 6 of us in this stylish home in Sendagi. The house lends itself to two groups, with one each able to stay on one of the two upper floors, which are comfortable and have good air conditioners for the hot summer days. The kitchen lends itself to simple cooking, mainly breakfast in our case, and socializing in the bar-style seating of the kitchen. The beds were comfortable and even though there is only one bathroom and one shower, we didn't feel tight in the home. The location was perfect, and we explored the many interesting corners of the Yanesen neighborhoods, even going nightly to the public hot bath a few blocks away for true immersion in the community. There are many great restaurants and markets, really nothing is lacking. We look forward to one day coming back and staying in Otome again..

We loved staying here. Close to a metro station allowed for endless exploring in Tokyo. The quiet Yanaka neighborhood was great to come back to each day. We loved wandering the narrow streets and discovering great restaurants, food shops and coffee. Hisae was great to work with. We can’t wait to return.

The location of the house is really very good. The first 3 days we used public transport but after that we took the two bikes to get around Tokyo. Much nicer and easier than public transport. The main street leads straight into Tokyo, past Akihabara, Tokyo Central station, the Imperial Palace, Ginza etc.The house is a bit off the main street so no noise from cars and busses.

The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. The information provided up front was excellent and we got a very warm welcome upon arrival. Highly recommended. We will visit Tokyo again and we will try to book this house again.

I stayed in the house for almost 2 weeks in November.

Easy to get to the house from the Nippori train stop, I took a taxi the night I arrived, and walked the day I left. I really felt like I was part of a real neighborhood. The house is not near a lot of hotels, but still walking distance to Ueno. Multiple convenience stores, liquor stores and drugstores nearby for supplies. I liked 7-11 (so very different from North American version) and the Drugstore Papas. All kinds of restaurants, bakeries, and little shops all around. Safe area, women and kids walking and biking around by themselves. All ages of people in the area.

Kitchen was stocked with basic spices, dishes and supplies. I especially liked the pour over coffee dripper and the microwave that is also a toaster, a grill and an oven. Clothes washer was super convenient.

Nice Japanese style toilet (including heated seats for those cold winter nights). Top floor bedroom stayed warm at night with heat on. Beds were comfy. I noticed the internet signal does not reach the 3rd floor.

Host was responsive, friendly and professional. Had no problems with the self check in or check out. Very helpful book in the house that explains all appliances and the garbage/recycling procedures.

Would recommend to anyone traveling to Tokyo.
