The location is excellent. Next to okubo station which gets you pretty much anywhere. It is a small studio apartment as described and it has everything you need. The host was very friendly, polite and respectful. He picked me up on check-in and dropped me off where i needed at checkout.I felt like I had my own little place in tokyo. Will come back!

Location was close to the stations. Despite being close to the station, it was a peaceful retreat from hustle and bustle of Okubo. The rooms were Japanese style, very clean and with attached balcony. The host was responsive, exceptionally kind and even provided transport to and from during check in and check out.

The apartment is quite small but it’s thoughtfully designed and equipped with everything you need.

This property is impressively clean and well-maintained, offering top-notch hospitality. The owner goes above and beyond, providing a free shuttle service to the train station, which is incredibly convenient. All the electronic equipment in the apartment works perfectly, and the detailed instruction list ensures everything is easy to use.

A little hidden gem in the hustle and bustle of Shinjuku & Okubo. We feel truly lucky to have found a place like this with everything equipped - kitchen, storage, little private yard, and to have met the host - a kind, generous and gracious man, who picked us up and dropped us with his car. Would definitely recommend this place to anybody! You can't miss it!

We loved our short time at La Speranza - located one stop away from Shinjuku, nearby Tokyo's Korea Town - it's a little bit more of a local vibe in the area, but there is still a lot nearby and you're well connected with the subway. Our host was a highlight of the stay - he was very keen on making sure we arrived and left the accommodation comfortably, and is willing and ready to drive you to the subway station. He toured us around the building and our room, making sure we understood how to use everything and that there would be no questions - he was very friendly, helpful, and funny. He even made sure we had cans of coffee and tea before we headed out upon check-out. The room itself is comfortable, perfect for someone staying longer term and needing a kitchen, the beds were comfortable and the outdoor space very peaceful (an added bonus that we didnt expect!). Would definitely recommend and stay here again :)

Super host, very kind and helpful, we received a royal welcome. Water, drinks and transfers offered as a gift. Very clean house and in a strategic position for visiting Tokyo. The house has everything you need for cooking, washing clothes etc. It also has a courtyard/garden that allows you to enjoy the beautiful morning sun. Sleeping in the futons was wonderful. Do yourself a favor: book here to enjoy a truly welcoming Japanese atmosphere.

The apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood, but only 15mins walk from subway station. There are a lot of cute stores and restaurants, which makes the stay very convenient. Room is much bigger than we expected, and with literally EVERYTHING you need inside, even drip coffee, a small kitchen and a washing machine. Traditional Japanese style bedroom, clean sheets, as foreigners we get a special experience here. The host received us and showed us the room with great hospitality, and he recommended the Shinjuku area and where to go, what to eat, very nice guy. Highly recommend and I will come back next time in Tokyo.

Very nice apartment with everything kne would want: kitchen, bathroom, toilet and the livingroom/bedroom with original japanese Futons on tatami mats. I had an apartment with a terrace too. The owner is incredibly nice, he asked me where and when I would arrive and picked up me and my baggage by car drom the station, but then even drove me with all my baggage back to the station after my stay. I felt right at home and would always come back here.

Location and excellent host.

The balcony sliding doors allow cold air to seep in, but that cant be helped given that it is winter. It could be alleviated with blocking it with cushions.

The host was very kind and friendly, he had made the effort to come and pick us up at the nearest train station which made it easy for us to find the place. He was very warm and welcoming, gave very clear instructions on how to enter and operate appliances in the house. He had also arranged to drop us off at the train station, which is of great help given the amount of luggage we had when we left the place.

Even with the heater on, the main living room has some cold spots, especially by the door to the little yard (there were some pillows provided to act as insulation but they don't do the best job).

More like an Airbnb. You get a nice apartment that's located very close to Shin-Okubo, and decently close to Shinjuku and Takadanobaba (all great, bustling areas especially for nightlife). The space was clean and tidy. You have a kitchen with a microwave, rice cooker, and kettle. Also a washing machine. The owner gave a lot of instructions but was otherwise hands-off during the stay.

Accomodation was a little tight for 2 people, as with most accom in Japan. Would be perfect for solo traveller.

The location was excellent. 5 min walk to Ōkubo station, 1 stop to Shinjuku. Neighbourhood was peaceful and quite but still had plenty of things around

- close to Okubo and Shin-Okubo station - also walking distance to Shinjuku station (about 20 min) - shops and restaurants nearby - the host is really friendly and picked us up from shin-okubo station and dropped us to Shinjuku station when leaving - clean apartment, good wifi, nice shower, fridge, cooking area, and washing machine - some hanging space inside and in the small patio outside - lovely small additions such as hair wash and body wash, tissues, water bottles etc. The place was better than we expected. Definitely recommend! Thanks for having us :)
