Shitamachi Base

Practical, cosy and excellent value!

Pros: I liked that everything was practical and the location was nice and quiet.

Cons: I would’ve liked a chair and small table to eat at. Also, some instructions on how to turn the heating on because it was quite cold sitting on the floor with no chairs. But please know that these weren’t big problems - the accomodation was wonderful.

Excellent stay for solo travellers.

Pros: Excellent self contained apartment with everything you need. Kitchen, laundry, bathroom. Host allowed early luggage storage from 10am. About 10min walk from Hikifune Station.

Great for 1 person in Tokyo

Pros: To have a place to myself in Tokyo for the price was great! As I was there 8 nights it was good to have my own space.

Cons: The closest train/tram/subway line is at least 12 minute walk away (fine for daily life but with big bags wasn’t the best). There is only 1 sink in the kitchenette so had to clean teeth here as well as do any dishes. It probably could do with a bit of a touch up (futon especially), this was what I was using for downtime and the futon is quite old. The main bed is up quite a steep ladder but this is in the pics. The internet completely cut out my first day there but came back on a few hours later, I had contacted the owner and he was going to come check but it did come back on before this was needed.

Pros: Good location, train station only a short walk away. The room was small but that wasn't an issue since I was traveling solo. Good value for the price.

Cons: Internet connection could be better. It was fine most of the time but sometimes the speed would drop for a bit.

Cannot have something better!

Pros: Everything was amazing. I enjoyed so much my time here I’ll return for sure next time ❤️❤️❤️

Cons: Nothing it’s just perfect

Pros: The place is really a good value for money. And place is nice and clean.

Micro-apartment for single travelers.

Pros: Tiny apartment,fully equipped, in a lovely and very quite neighborhood, at less than 10 minutes walk to Hikifune station. Comfortable futon upstairs (quite steep) under a low ceiling.

Cons: There's only one sink in the kitchen and no sink in the bathroom.

Pros: great location. only 2 min walking to 7-11, 10 min walk to Hikifune station. The room is compact, small but has all you need and very clean. It also very secure, 1 locked door in the front and there is locked door for you room. The neighborhood is quiet. The host is very informative and ready to help.

Pros: - affordable - nearby combini - was able to arrive before check-in time when I asked to, and was able to leave my luggage at the apartment while the room was still being cleaned - there was a folder with English instructions/information - short walk to the station - tokyo skytree, Asakusa and other attractions nearby

Pros: Great location, good price for a room with private bathroom.
