Cons:

Waschmittel ging nach 1x Waschen aus, Nachfüllung wäre toll gewesen.
Und für 3 Personen etwas wenig Platz durch das Schlafsofa, aber es ging, nachdem wir es gedreht haben 😅

Well recommended.
Pros:

The property is not far from the train station and bus, easy to find, quite spacious for 3 persons (my 2 daughters and I). It’s clean and looks exactly like on the pictures.

Cons:

None. However, if I may suggest, please provide something to put the dishes as there’s no dishwasher in the kitchen as well as kitchen towels/napkins as we had to use a lot of tissues to dry everything after washing them.

Proche du métro et hôte réactive!
Pros:

La proximité avec le métro et les 7-eleven, quartier calme, le curry juste en bas de l'appartement est très bon!
La communication avec l'hôte s'est très bien passée et réponds très vite!
Spacieux et pratique pour 2 personnes :)

Cons:

Le séchage des serviettes dans la salle de bain n'est pas optimale.
Sinon rien d'autre à ajouter :)

Wonderful Apartment in Waseda, Tokyo
Pros:

The apartment was centrally located, well-equipped, and cozy. The owner was helpful and communicative.

It is just a few moments walk away from the Waseda train station that gives you access to the whole city of Tokyo!

Cons:

I am 6' 5". The apartment is short for me. I am sure it's fine for most residents of Tokyo. This is not a negative comment. If you are very tall, though, book this place. It is wonderful. Just duck down in certain places.

Kaupunkiloma perheen kanssa
Pros:

Sijainti lähellä Wasedan metroasemaa rauhallisella kadulla. Hyvä kontakti isäntään ja nopeat vastaukset.

Cons:

Pieni neljälle aikuiselle, vain yksi sänky ja tatamipatja. Ei oikeastaan ikkunaa, parvekkeen ovi ainoa ikkuna, jossa pleksilasi. Laseja (muovimukit) vain kolme. Käsipyyhkeet puuttuivat kokonaan. Kylpyhuoneen viemäri haiskahti silloin tällöin.

Pros:

清潔でキッチン用具なども揃っており、冷蔵庫や冷凍庫、フライパンや炊飯器、食器なども揃っていたので料理するのに申し分ありませんでした。 夜は静かでよく眠れました。

Cons:

トイレの下水道の臭いが気になりました。

A pleasant studio.
Pros:

It was clean, quiet, close to 7-11 and Waseda Station.

Cons:

Taxi and Uber drivers have difficulty finding the location. The WiFi connection was not very good.
