Hi,
Thank you for visiting Tokyo, Japan.
I would like to help your stay in Japan by sharing Clean (8 years old building) Japanese typical 2LDK(2xRoom, Living/Dining, Kitchen) apartment. I keep one of two rooms for my work then you can use one bigger room for your private and share living/dining/kitchen as common space. My typical working time is 8am-7pm, sometime my son (13yo) will come to play game though, you can mostly occupy the apartment yourself in the evening and whole day of weekend, but of course I can host services on your request at additional cost.
Location
Kitasenju - located East-North of Tokyo - is well-known as a town of blue-collars since 400 years ago but recently it dramatically turned to be a pretty town for young generations still remaining classic Japanese culture. Quite reasonable for living to compare to Shibuya/Shinjuku area.
Good access to everywhere, especially Asakusa/Ueno(10 mins by train), Shinjuku(30 mins by train), Shibuya(40 mins by train).
Apartment is on the 1st (basement) floor so easy to walk in/out.
7 min walk to Kitasenju station.
Quiet residential area and convenient location to live.
1 min walk to Akaraka river, good for run and bike as well as fishing.
There are many excellent restaurants, cafe bakery, supermarket, convenience store, and bars near by.

My second home was with Nobu San, excellent trip, The best experience of my life no complains. i wish i could have been there for another 3 months.
Im always gratefull with him.
The location is really good since the subway station in Kitasenju is really close, the neighborhood is quiet and calm.
The Apartment is big enough, and it has a nice kitchen and a washing machine, i found it really convenient.
You are 30 to 40 minutes away from Ueno, Asakusa and Akihabara.
The best. Thank you Nobu San.
P.s i highly recommend to learn a little of japanese before your stay, it will make your stay more enjoyable.
