We felt very comfortable staying with Yoko and Aki and their 2 beautiful white cats. Our bedroom was on the ground floor with futon bedding and a separate bathroom (we shared this with one other longer term tenant-this worked well.) Yoko and Aki live on the floors above, so we had both privacy and local assistance when we needed it.
Public transport is great in Tokyo, 5 mins walk to the bus stop and 10 mins to the subway.
Aki provided us with breakfast, coffee and entertaining stories (in English and mime) each morning. Thank you, Yoko and Aki.
We’d happily return.May 2019
Notre séjour chez yoko c’est tres bien passé super accueil nous avons trouver facilement le logement avec les informations de yoko. La chambre était très bien tout à disposition (douche, toilette, frigo). Yoko a su nous renseigner sur les visites et nous faire un super plat d’accueil. Son mari yaki est très blagueur et les deux chats trop mimi je vous recommande ce logement sans problème !

We had a very nice stay with Yoko and Aki. On weekend we tried different types of Japanese food with Yoko. Aki did some lovely breakfast for us and both of them are great cooks. In the evenings we had a lot of fun together. The rooms they offer are very clean and comfortable. Furthermore the house is very close to an Busstation, from where you can go to Shinjuku in a few minutes. We would recommend staying with them!

Yoko and Aki are wonderful hosts. It is a daunting thing to travel to the other side of the world, but they immediately made us feel at home and at ease. They live in a quiet neighborhood with all the essentials (7-11, restaurants, etc) and there is a bus stop right there so it is easy to hop on a bus and explore. We hope to return to Tokyo and when we do we'd love to stay with them again.

Yoko et Aki sont des Personnes charmantes et très attentionnées. Le séjour chez eux était parfait : ils étaient à l'écoute et nous ont conseillé sur les nombreuses choses a faire a Tokyo. De même les soirées et les petits déjeuners passés a discuter avec eux étaient très sympas : Yoko et Aki ont beaucoup d'humour. Une formidable expérience qui nous donne de supers souvenirs. Nous recommandons !

Die Unterkunft ist ein 2 stöckiger Neubau, modern, gut eingerichtet, ruhig. Das Haus hat keine Zentralheizung. Die Gästezimmer und das Wohnzimmer können individuell über AC beheizt werden.
Zentral gelegen mit guter Busverbindung alle 5 Minuten für 2,10 YEN bis Shinjuku Station.
In dem Zimmer auf der 2. Etage - female only - fand ich alles vor, wie beschrieben. Das Bett war sehr bequem - KEIN Futon.
Lediglich die Angabe "eigenes Bad" ist irreführend, da das Bad in Parterre von allen im Haus benutzt wird.Yoko spricht gut Englisch und Aki bemüht sich, was sehr hilfreich war. Yoko ist berufstätig und Aki arbeitet meistens von zu Hause, ist daher häufig anwesend. Sehr angenehm empfand ich, dass meine Wäsche mitgewaschen werden konnte, was bei einem zweiwöchigen Aufenthalt wirklich hilft.
Yin und Yuku sind freundliche Katzen, die sich im Wohnzimmer aufhalten.

Staying with Yoko and Aki was a wonderful time. We felt like in a family. They are very nice, friendly people. We hope that we will return to Japan and meet them again:)

Nous avons passé un super moment chez Yoko et son mari. Je pense que c'est difficile de faire mieux, ils sont accueillant, attentionné, drôle. Si je retourne sur Tokyo je retournerai chez Yoko sans au une hésitation :)

We had a very welcoming and comfortable stay with Yoko and Aki. We wish we had more time with them and in Tokyo. We’d love to visit and stay again. We highly recommend staying with Yoko and Aki if you are in Tokyo!

We had a wonderful homestay with Yoko during our visit to Tokyo. Yoko made us feel comfortable and at home and went above and beyond to accommodate us. We enjoyed getting to chat with her and husband and appreciated all of their sightseeing tips for our travels. We highly recommend this homestay for anyone visiting the area!
