Staying at Reiko-san's apartment was wonderful! It is right next to a train station and convenience stores in a quiet neighborhood. She is very friendly and kind, I wish I could have stayed there longer and if I am ever in Japan again for an extended amount of time I would not hesitate to book again. Reiko-san helped me practice Japanese and gave me advice about tourist sites in Tokyo, she was very hospitable, if you're looking for a place to stay in Tokyo this is a really good option!

Reiko san is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. She is always smiling or laughing, and her home feels very welcoming and warm to everyone. Reiko san’s family are also delightful. We had such a great time there, she was always helpful and kind and created a perfect balance of interacting together and our own space. We also made good friends with the other guest and it was a great place to stay. Would highly recommend!

I don't have words to describe this experience in Reiko’s house. I spend the best experience in my life in Japan and I won't forget how Reiko take care of me. She was too sweet and comprehensive with me, she help me in everything. The house is really amazing, I felt it was comfortable and tidy. Everything was cleaned and beautiful. Live in Reiko´s house is marvellous and funny. She wasn’t only the owner of the house, she was my friend. I will back to Tokio and of course I want to live with my friend Reiko.

If you are looking for a place to stay in Tokyo for over a month...stop, your search is over. Reiko-san was the most incredible, thoughtful, and kind host mother I've ever had. She is very open-minded and generous. For example, Reiko-san helped me find a small nearby library where I could study, and also allowed me to use one of her classrooms (across the hall) to study on a holiday. I really enjoyed the conversations that we had together. We had a naturally comfortable atmosphere that allowed everyone in the house to have alone time when she needed it without feeling uncomfortable, and we also had fantastic times together as a group (two guests and host). Reiko-san lives in a very accessible area, only two stops away from Shinjuku Station by subway, and it is surprisingly quiet. For Japan, I found the rooms to be quite spacious, and her house is clean and comfortable. Her breakfasts were also delicious. Honestly, I could gush for hours about how wonderful Reiko-san is, but suffice it to say, you will have a wonderful experience if you choose to stay with her. Thank you so much, Reiko-san. I look forward to continuing our friendship and meeting you again soon in Japan!
