Categories

Cleanliness
1
Multiple reviews mention bathroom cleanliness issues (hair, dust, toys in bathtub) and one guest explicitly reported being unable to use the room; cleanliness is a clear negative.
Service
1
Most guests praise the host for quick responses, helpfulness and luggage storage; however one review reports no response on arrival, so service is generally positive but with an important exception.
Location
1
Repeatedly described as very close to Hirai station, convenient for JR pass users, with many nearby shops and restaurants — consistently strong positive.
Room Quality
1
Several guests note practical issues: no elevator (4th floor with heavy luggage), low door frames/hitting heads, and beds short for tall guests — clear negatives for room suitability.
Amenities
1
Apartment comes well-equipped (cleaning products, shampoo, rice cooker, projector, laundry facilities) but some mention basic equipment is minimal (no glasses/cups) — overall slightly positive.
Value for Money
1
One review states the quality-price ratio is okay; given the positives (location, amenities) and some negatives, value is marginally positive.
Food and Beverage
1
Not discussed in reviews; assigned target overall rating.
Overall Experience
1
Mixed overall: many guests report very positive stays (convenient location, helpful host, well-equipped), but serious negative incidents (guest unable to access the property/no response, cleanliness failures) lead to a negative overall impression for some.

Buen alojamiento familiar
Pros:

Precio accesible, barrio tranquilo, si bien el metro está cerca existe una buena aislación de ruido con las ventanas cerradas. Existen tiendas de conveniencia a una cuadra y el metro está a pasos del departamento. Tiene lavadora, microondas, refrigerador y cocina.

Cons:

No aconsejable si llevas maletas grandes, pero es muy cómodo para varias personas

值得再次入住
Pros:

位置优越，离车站步行几分钟即达，很容易找到。房间安静，双层玻璃，即使就在电车线路附近也不会被打搅。床品舒适干净，设施齐全。微波炉、煤气炉灶，锅具碗筷齐全，连住多日的话，简单的自炊料理很方便。车站附近有24小时超市，和各种店铺，采购便利。Staff沟通很方便，回复非常快速。入住和离开当天可以寄存行李，非常加分。自助Check in/out，方便快捷

Cons:

WI-FI不稳定，时好时差。两眼炉灶似乎不能2个同时使用，也许是操作不熟练，只点着了一个，不过也够用了。

Pros:

I like the design of the room and lighting. There was extra pillow and blankets were provided. It felt like a house.

Cons:

The bathroom was a bit old. The mirror was not clean due to water stains. There was no proper mirror to do makeup. Also the water heating system in shower made easier but there was a lack of explanation. At first i thought there was no hot water as t turns put i needed to turn on the system and log in the degree for the water. It could be been explained with an english sign underneath the system monitor.

Pros:

The location is perfect, short walk from JR Hirai Station which if perfect if you have JR Passes, there are plenty of convenient store, restaurant, pharmacy and drugstore nearby which is so helpful since we visit during winter.

They also respond immediately to us if we have questions, plus they also have luggage storage that really help us to save a few bucks after we checked out.

The neighborhood is so peaceful, there are laundry shop nearby as well and easy to use which is a plus

Definetely will book again if we will visit Tokyo again :)

Cons:

None
