Rengeso

Great opportunity to live like the locals for our stay in Japan

Pros: Once we got used to the neighbourhood (didn't take long), we loved the location of the property. The host was very friendly and helpful. We had the option to get new towels every day. This was really appreciated and helped with having dry fresh towels every day. We liked the traditional feel to the house and the Japanese touches that we are not used to in Australia. We were a little concerned that our family of 5 would not fit but we made it work and we were all very comfortable for our trip to Tokyo.

Cons: The pillows were a complaint that we all felt in Japan - not just at this accommodation. We are used to higher firmer pillows and Japanese pillows are not. That's all that we didn't like!

Shimbamba <3

Pros: Located near Shimbaba Station, which is directly connected to Shinagawa and other train stations in and around Tokyo. 20 minute walk from Shinagawa Station. Beds are super comfortable and the living room is awesome. Hosts are super nice and helpful and reply quickly to messages.

Cons: The bins are outside. If the weather is bad you might get wet throwing out the trash. The toilets are a little cramped. The walls are thin, if you're a light sleeper, skip this.

Good Location. Basic facilities.

Pros: Nice old school Japanese little house. Good location, behind the train station. Very friendly host. They lent us an international adapter. Lot's of convenience stores and restaurants around.

Cons: Very basic. Nowhere to sit comfortably, the stairs are very steep and there is not hand rail. They could provide basic cooking need like salt, oil, coffee, sugar.

Absolutely fabulous stay at Rengeso! Super clean, great location and perfect place to say for couples or family!

Pros: Loved everything! Cannot recommend this accomodation highly enough!

Dream house

Pros: Great space for family. Very close to metro. Has parking space if you are driving a car. The host is very nice and helpful. The room is cosy and warm. The temple at the back is healing me XD

Cons: No bath tub, however there are public hot springs nearby.

The best japanese traditional experience

Pros: The traditional design of the house. You can experience the pure japanese domestic essence. The staff was very nice and had a good English level.

Cons: The railway station close to the apartment is a special line not included in the JR Pass or the Tourist Pass, which makes it a bit uncomfortable to take it.

Pros: The beds were very comfortable and the house is a quaint Japanese style house. We are a family of 5 and fit ok. The staff looking after the property are very hospitable and provide excellent and friendly service. It is very well located next to a local station.

Cons: The house gets cold in winter, the air conditioning works well and solves the problem mainly.

Pros: Comfortable, warm and near train station. The staff are accomodating, helpful and friendly.

Great location and close to Haneda airport and shinagawa

Pros: Very convenient location right next to a train station. Clean and straight forward layout. Clean. Quiet neighbourhood.

I will definitely return!!

Pros: Immaculate, spacious and charming little house, a perfect location and a stone's throw from Shinagawa station and local shops. A beautiful shrine at the reception area too. Honestly, on my next trip to japan I'm booking it straight away. The hosts are very friendly and accommodating!

Cons: Perhaps a few bowls to eat from and a couple more cooking utensils?
