Uhome Kamiitabashi Apartment

Pros: Great location at a quiet residential area, and very close to the train station. I will certainly consider this place again if I go for another trip!

Cons: A little far from convenience stores, but there is a small local grocery nearby. The stairs are narrow and it was a bit difficult to carry your luggage upstairs/downstairs. I also noticed that the shower room could be small depending on the person, but I fit just fine.

Pros: This was by far my favourite stay in Tokyo. The apartment was a good size, the bed was comfortable and the area was peaceful and quiet. Will definitely book again next time I visit Tokyo.

Cons: The only thing that wasn't perfect about the apartment was the shower. It was a bit small and cramped for me, but I'm 6'3 so that might not be a problem for everyone.

It was great! I would wholeheartedly recommend it.

Pros: The rooms were just around the right size, with not too much or too little. All the amenities were there. Microwave, Kettle, Washer dryer.

Cons: The only thing that was wrong with the property is that it didn’t have a sink in the bathroom, causing me to do my night time preparations in the sink of the kitchen. I’m quite tall, so I ended up bumping my head a few times on the smoke absorber over the stove.

Pros: The apartment is clean. There's a bed, a kitchen table, and a desk. The bed linen is clean. Three towels are provided. Air conditioning, a mirror in the room, and a mirror in the shower are included. There's a refrigerator, a gas stove, a washing machine, a kettle, a slow cooker, and a hairdryer. Various cutlery are provided. There's even an umbrella (probably left over from the previous tenants). The apartment is well soundproofed; you can barely hear trains, but you can occasionally hear neighbors slamming doors and talking in their rooms. The entrance door and the door to the balcony are of good quality. Dishwashing liquid, shampoo, and liquid soap are provided. Good lighting in the room. A sturdy staircase leads to the third floor. The apartment is conveniently located, a 5-minute walk from Kami-Itabashi Station. A 5-minute walk to the Aeon supermarket (My Basket), cheaper than 7/11 and FamilyMart.

Cons: I needed a small saucepan to cook spaghetti and porridge. It was in the photo when I booked the room. But when I checked in, I couldn't find the saucepan. I asked the owner for a small saucepan, but the owner refused and suggested I buy my own. There was only one mug for tea. There was no laundry detergent either, only an empty box. I asked the owner for laundry detergent, but he told me to buy my own because the apartment doesn't provide laundry detergent. I stayed in the room for 10 days, and the main problem with this apartment is the lack of an iron! How am I supposed to iron my clothes after washing them? Or should I walk around in dirty or wrinkled clothes so everyone knows I'm from Uhome Kamiitabashi Apartment? The owner asks that you sort your trash, but doesn't provide trash bags. There's only one trash bag in the trash bin. What should I put the other trash in? Or should I buy trash bags too? The apartment owner could have put a trash sorting container in the courtyard on the first floor so that all residents could put and sort their trash there instead of collecting it in their rooms during long stays. I had to find a place to collect plastic bottles and other trash outside and take my trash there myself. The bathroom door doesn't close because one of the previous tenants flooded the bathroom and the door swelled. The air conditioner needs cleaning; it was clearly dirty inside and hadn't been cleaned in a while. There's often no hot water in the shower. You turn on the shower and it's cold for 2-5 minutes, then hot for 1 minute, then cold again. After 5 minutes, hot water comes on for 1 minute, then cold again. Sometimes, even after 10 minutes, there was no hot water, and I had to take a cold shower. I turned the tap to 40ºC and 50ºC, and even pressed the special button and turned it to the maximum setting, but the water still remained cold. So, in the Tokyo apartment, I felt like I was in Russia.

Good location for ikebukuro lover
