Smoking friendly vacation rentals in Arakawa City

The host was very accommodating, responded promptly to all questions, went above and beyond to clarify any confusion on my part, and provided my traveling partner and I a unique stay that gave us perspective into Japanese living. It was a highlight of our stay and we highly recommend this location for any travellers who want to immerse themselves in Kabukicho.

So close to restaurants and the Meguro River and the shopping is great. Close to the train station so very easy to get around. The place is not spacious but then we were only there to sleep. We really enjoyed the locality. Riki’s communication was excellent.

房東友善，設施齊全，有升降機，洗衣機及微波爐，住宿地點與最近的地鐵站只有1分鐘路程，十分方便。

We had a great stay. Conveniently located 2mins from the metro and within minutes of nice coffee shops. Recommend for a short stay in Tokyo.

Gracious hosts whom were very responsive. The apartment was clean and utilities were well kept. The kitchen had everything you need to cook.

Motohiro was a wonderful host. He was very kind, accommodating, and responsive. The location was easy to find and near everything you need. It was a very short walk to the subway and central to other parts of Tokyo. I am very happy I stayed here for my visit!

We went to Tokyo in June of 2025 and wanted a central place to stay where we could easily walk around. Neighborhood is safe, there is a Family Mart and a Lawsons right up the street and a 7-11 close as well. About a 10 minute walk gets you to the heart of things, shopping. Area, Godzilla head area. Train station about a 15 minute walk. The area is safe, his place has a washer you won’t get in a hotel. Ideal for 2 or 3 people, you could do 4 but that’s max. I would stick to 2 or 3. Wi-Fi worked well. Would stay there again.

this unit was perfect for our family of 4. 3 bedrooms meant we had space which was great after tiny rooms at the start of our holiday. very easy to walk to the metro and only 15 minutes walk to ueno station. mini shop convenient store only a minute walk away. having the washing machine and balcony was great. all up we really enjoyed our stay.

Nice place, near to train station,near to minimarket, the host very helpfull.. will be back again

Great house, I stayed here with my friends as a group of 5 and we each got our own room and bed. The house came with all of it's listed amenities including a washing machine and a dryer. The only thing you may want to be careful of is that you may need to duck through the doorways when walking around the house if you are taller than 170cm. Otherwise, this is a fantastic place to stay. Very peaceful neighborhood and only a 5 to 10 minute walk from the two closest train stations. The host and co-host, Akane and Yosuke, were also very friendly and accommodating, making the check-in, check-out, and the duration of the stay so comfortable!

The place is in a great location very close to Nishi Waseda station. The size of the apartment is relatively big for Tokyo and is very comfortable for a longer stay. Lots of restaurants, supermarket and shops nearby. Will definitely stay again!

Definitely worth renting the airbnb,me &my friends book this place in May for 6 nights. Undoubtedly, this is one of the best place we have ever been to. The facilities are look brand-new and all functional. The house owner also reply in no sec, giving clear instructions to every questions we inquired. The location is also amazing since there are tons of convenience stores nearby. The only downside is that the plug locations are not that convenient and may cause some problem. But overall, the pros, with no doubt, outweigh the cons!

家族で数泊させていただきました。新築ということもあって、どこもとても清潔で気持ちよく過ごせました。部屋ごとに少しずつ雰囲気が違っていて、インテリアもおしゃれで落ち着ける空間でした。 子連れにとってありがたかったのが、ベビーチェアやベビーベッド、おもちゃなどが揃っていたこと。荷物を減らせたし、子どもも飽きずに遊べて、親としてはかなり助かりました。キッチンや洗濯機などの家電も一通り揃っていて、滞在中のちょっとした家事もスムーズにできました。 広さも十分にあって、家族みんながそれぞれくつろげるスペースがあったのもよかったです。リビングでご飯を食べたり、夜は早めに寝かしつけたりと、生活のリズムをあまり崩さずに過ごせたのが個人的には嬉しかったポイントです。 駅からは徒歩圏内で、周辺にスーパーや飲食店も多く、滞在中の買い物や食事には困りませんでした。浅草やスカイツリーにもアクセスしやすく、観光と生活のバランスがちょうどよかったです。 ホストの方との連絡もとてもスムーズで、こちらの質問にも丁寧に対応していただき、安心感がありました。家族連れには本当におすすめできる宿です。また東京に来る機会があれば、ぜひまた利用したいです。

It was super comfortable staying at this place and would recommend to others.

Amazing stay, adequately equipped, super cozy and felt just like home! The whole place is definitely large enough to comfortably fit 4 or more people, however, note that the floors are divided into separate units and you need to go outside to move between them. The best part was the turntable and records on the first floor, we constantly had that thing running. If you don’t want to sleep in the big city, this bnb will be excellent for you with its small town situation, great restaurants nearby and local vibes. Would absolutely come again next time I’m in Tokyo with friends.

友人との旅行で泊まりました。 ホテルの場所は最高です！大久保駅から歩いて30秒で、近くには私たちが行きたかったショップやレストランがたくさんあります！ お部屋はとてもおしゃれで、シャワールームもたくさんあって、とても快適に過ごせました！夜中までおしゃべりするのにぴったりの高級ホテルみたいな素敵なリビングがあってとてもワクワクしてしまいました！ ホストのJunさんはとても親切で 、わかりやすいメッセージでいろいろ教えてくれたので、滞在中も全く困ったことはありませんでした。友人とお泊りパーティーをするときにはぜひまたここに泊まりたいと思います！

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour à Tokyo dans ce logement situé dans le quartier d’Ikebukuro. La description et les photos sont bien fidèles. Tout s’est bien passé : mention spéciale à son hôte qui est très réactif si vous avez la moindre question !

This was our first Airbnb in Japan and it started off the trip well. 5 full size beds in 3 bedrooms was great for privacy. Mattresses are on the firm side. It's in the middle of K-town so lively and exciting, but on Monday night, I could hear people and k-pop playing until 4 am. Luckily I enjoy the music and was so jet-lagged, I slept through most of it. There's a filtered water dispenser, which is very nice for filling reusable bottles for the day and not having to worry about buying from the store. There's a couple hosts and the one who was in charge of communication during the trip was very responsive, even when I messaged at 7 am (sorry!) The dining table was nice to eat quick meals at and a Lawson is right around the corner. The shower was fairly clean, but we did have to use the designated shower slippers and the area right outside the shower lacked clean space to put down our clean clothes or toiletry bags etc. Not a big deal unless you're a germaphobe. Overall great experience!

直前の予約にも関わらず、スムーズなコミュニケーションができました。滞在中に差し入れもいただいて、とても親切に接していただきました。また宿泊したいと思える滞在になりました。ありがとうございました。

Great location! So close to the hustle and hustle of Shibuya and yet so quiet and so peaceful and in such a great area! I loved the location! The home is clean and very spacious and especially for Tokyo standards and had everything we needed. Close to all types of shopping, grocery, dining, bars and restaurants. The host is very responsive and I appreciated that as well. Overall, I recommend this home for its great location in Tokyo and the fact that it’s a clean and spacious home with a responsive host.

エイホウさん was an amazing host. Very warm, friendly and positive attitude, always responsive. I loved my 7-day-stay at this apartment and it was mainly because of エイホウさんpresence. The price is right, the location was very quiet and close enough to 2 subway/train stations which made it easy to go anywhere. Thank you エイホウさん for everything!!
