Enjoyed our time in Tokyo
We had a very nice stay in Toshima City. The Komagome train station was in close walking distance from the apartment (on the JR Yamamoto Line) along with plenty of stores and restaurants and peaceful gardens in the vicinity. You’re right in the middle between the Tokyo station going clockwise and the Shibuya station going counterclockwise with wonderful stops in either direction. The stove and the refrigerator worked really well for us. The hot water is slower to arrive than expected but it was still okay. The portable clothes rack in the kitchen was utilized since there is no actual closet space. The entire unit was adequate but it’s a little tired looking compared to most other rentals we have stayed at. The owner was excellent with his communications and very quick to reply to our questions on the first day. Had no reason to contact him after that. It was pretty smooth sailing for the 5 nights we were there. The AC worked great in the bedroom but not in the living room, but that could have been our issue of not using the controls correctly but we were fine without it. Arrival to and departure from the rental was easy and hassle free. WiFi was satisfactory as well. We would recommend this place for the location and peace and quiet that we experienced. The cleaning crew could have done a better job and it could use some overall freshening up to give it more pizazz and energy.
