All of us in a group of 6 had a great time staying in this lovely apartment for 8 nights, it was all well laid out and spacious for our needs. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Tokyo as its both really nice and great value. Pictures and description are very accurate. it would be very suitable for a family for sure. Joe was really very welcoming and efficient host. he even offered us a tour as we were staying a few days. Plenty of bedding etc. The inclusion of a portable wifi hot spot was also very nice. The area is fantastic too as it is located at a very accessible place in shinjuku, in the heart of the city but safe and less the noise so it is good for a family. we ate in many great places very nearby as in Higashi shinjuku staion, Robot restaunt, Kabukicho, Shinjuku Gyoen National Park and All big shopping malls within only short walking distance. Joe is a brilliant host, could not recommended more highly. Great instructions, really responsive, let us leave luggage at apartment due to early arrival. A lovely friendly Japanese guy. Highly recommended.
