I wanted a place close to TIU which would be both affordable and clean and this place was exactly that. They also provided all the amenities that would be needed for a traveler. The best aspect is the host who is very nice, helpful and proactive.

Comfortable Japan-Sized Accomodations
As anyone who's spent time in Japan will tell you, it's rare to find spacious accomodations. That being said, this was a lovely place to stay. The kitchen is stocked with necessities - frying pan, pot, spoon, spatula, microwave, paper towels - but if you plan on cooking definitely pick up salt, pepper,other essentials, as you won't find them. The mini fridge is nice and can stock a fairly large amount of food. I actually stayed here for the better part of a month, and while it can get claustrophobic at times, the bed was EXTREMELY comfortable, and as far as I'm concerned, that makes everything better!! If you do bring the maximum number of guests, don't expect to spend much time in the room - you'll only really have space to sleep. For a duo or solo traveler, though, it's quite nice! The wifi was easy to connect to and quite fast, I easily connected all my devices and enjoyed watching Netflix many a night during my stay. If you're somone who likes to keep things tidy, there's also a vacuum, mop, and various other supplies to keep the place looking as good as when you first arrived! I didn't actually use the loft (I'm afraid of heights), though I popped up briefly just out of curiosity. The ceiling is fairly high and it's wide enough to comfortably lie down... So long as you're not as afraid of heights as I am. The bathroom is also typical Japanese apartment/hotel style - toilet, sink, and bath all crowded in to one spot. If you'd prefer something more spacious, I recommend visiting a hot spring, there are several in the Kawagoe area. The location is decent, BUT, be forewarned; it's a decent walk from Matoba station, and the roads can be winding and confusing. If you have a lot of heavy luggage, I recommend shipping it from the airport or hailing a taxi - it's really not worth wrestling large baggage that far. Speaking of baggage, it's possible to stow suitcases under the bed and in the closet. Unfortunately, the closet doesn't have much room, so only expect to
