Vacation rentals with a patio in Taito City

Staying at this hidden gem was an absolute treat. Pati, our wonderful host, made our first trip to Japan unforgettable by offering amazing recommendations for food, shopping, and travel. After much research on where to stay, discovering Koenji and Pati's place felt like finding gold at the end of the rainbow. The location was perfect for us, as we love to walk—stations were easily accessible by foot, and the Koenji shops were just a short stroll away. The space itself was perfect—spacious, full of natural light, with a lovely little balcony. The large dining table and open layout made it feel like a true home away from home. We stayed for 8 nights and it was ideal for a longer stay. Despite the cold weather and snow on the first night, the heating kept us warm and cozy. Hot tip: definitely rent a bike to explore Koenji and Tokyo—it’s a fantastic way to get around. Thank you again, Pati, for your kindness and hospitality. We can’t wait to return to our new favorite place in Tokyo! :)

It’s was exactly like the pictures. Very cozy, clean and in a quiet area. Highly recommend

Great location, anything you can think of is nearby. Quiet neighborhood, allowing for plenty of rest. Space was tight for three people with large luggage, but we made it work. Overall would recommend.

Very close, 10 minutes walk to the Akihabara area but in a very quiet part of town as well. Easy to find and access the place. Very safe and accessible to several grocery and convenience stores. The host was very organized and provided excellent communication. If you want a place that is close to everything yet quiet and clean, choose this place. Would definitely stay here again if I come back to this section of Tokyo.

Place was relatively big enough for 2 and location was great. Cozy and comfortable. It was equipped with necessary facilities for your needs. If you want to experience living like a Japanese, this is a good apartment to go for.

A lovely apartment , plenty of room , stunning views from the roof top , spent evenings looking across the roof tops , taking in the stunning views especially of Sky Tree, 3 stations within 10-15 minute walk , lots of bars and restaurants within a 10-15 minute walk , all local tourist hotspots within east travelling. Train line nearby but you soon get used to it so it’s not an issue. Thank you for letting us stay.

Great place and flexible with changes .

This location is outside the massive crowds of Shibuya and other sections of Tokyo, but there's still a vibrant city feel and lots to do. Nakano Broadway has many different bars, restaurants & shops. The train stations is less than a 10 minute walk from the apartment. We had a party of 6 adults and loved the space. I recommend scheduling an off day to ride the trains for the first time so you are not frazzled or rushed. Once you get the hang of it, you will be able to see the other sections of Tokyo with ease. I highly recommend this apartment and host--both were fantastic! We had an amazing week in Tokyo!

This was our first trip to Japan and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dans place! The house was exactly as pictured and the directions given were perfect! The home is fully equipped with everything you could need! Having the 3 floors was nice as we traveled as a family of 5 with 2 teenagers, so everyone was able to have their own space. I will say, if having a tv is important to you, there aren’t any in this home, but that was not an issue at all for our family! Dan provided great local recommendations and was very responsive with any questions I had. The house is in a great location for multiple train stations and corner stores. We will definitely reach back out to stay here again on our next trip to Japan!

Perfect for a big family, walkable to many areas and transportation, clean and well equipped

We enjoyed our stay. Good location near two lines made day travel easy by train. Quiet neighborhood. A few close konbini's and markets near by made getting something to eat/drink easy. A few restaurants close by were good. Would stay again!

My friends and I loved the place. Close to the station and really yummy restaurants. Beds were comfy and the rooms were very spacious. Best sleep we had our whole holiday

我们一家四口在这里住了八晚，房东夫妇亲自欢迎我们入住，给我们带来了礼物，为我们详细介绍了房内电器、设施的使用方法和注意事项，并且非常贴心地为我们同行的婴儿准备了婴儿纸巾、沐浴露、玩具等婴儿用品，二楼厨房的冰箱装满了水、饮料、酸奶等食品供我们免费使用。房屋保养得非常干净，通往二楼和三楼的台阶、厨房、房间打扫得一尘不染、无可挑剔。住所周边环境非常安静，居住氛围浓厚，与东京闹市区的人满为患形成鲜明对比，步行范围内有便利店、快餐店、餐厅、大型超市等各类餐饮设施。二楼的客厅厨房起居室为我们一家人提供了便利的生活空间，早上我们会在厨房一起吃早餐，吃完后开启一天的旅程，晚上返回住所后在客厅休息聊天。房东响应非常迅速，总能快速回复消息，更重要的是，她及时热心地帮助我们收集处理旅行期间的厨余垃圾和生活垃圾，去过日本的游客都知道这有多么重要！通往二楼和三楼的楼梯狭长陡峭（没办法，日本独栋建筑的通病），对于需要搬运大件行李上楼和腿脚不便的老年人来说会有点困难，但是楼梯加装了扶手确保上下台阶的安全。如果你想避开东京闹市区的人山人海，这里是非常适合一家人居住的选择。

Propre, chaleureux, accueillant et plus encore. Nous nous sommes tout de suite sentis comme chez soi. Il y avait beaucoup d’accommodation comme du café, petit bonbon, bouteille d’eau et autres. On se sent vraiment à la maison. L’hôte est très chaleureux et répond rapidement. Les environs sont remplis d’activités et de beaux restos. Cependant, c’est a 1h de Shibuya et Shinjuku alors si vous comptiez y aller, il faut prévoir le coup.

This location was very convenient, since it was very close to 3 different stations. We were able to go to many of the places that we want. There were a couple issues that came up, but the host responded quickly to take care of them. Overall, a very nice stay for our group of 12 in Tokyo!

Very easy to find ans the host was waiting for us there and gave us a tour! She was always happy to help with any questions and kept the place spotless for our arrival. The location is a minute away from a Lawsons and a 15-or-so minute walk from the end of the Ginza line making transport in and out very easy for Tokyo first timers!

交通便利，房间设施齐全，很愉快的度过了假期

Très bel appartement, un peu loin du métro mais facile d’accès. L’ascenseur dans la résidence est un vrai plus car voyageant avec une poussette c’est vraiment pratique. J’ai eu du mal à trouver l’airbnb et l’hôte a fait en sorte que je le trouve facilement. Petit présent à la fin du séjour délivré par l’hôte ce qui rend l’expérience encore plus appréciable. Je recommande sans hésiter !

Die Unterkunft liegt sehr zentral mitten im Herzen von Shinjuku. Im Radius von 5 Gehminuten findet man mehrere Supermärkte und Restaurants. Der Hauptbahnhof von Shinjuku liegt 20 Gehminuten entfernt. Für europäische Verhältnisse wirkt die Wohnung gerade so ausreichend für 2 Personen und ich würde sie nur für 2-3 Tage in Betracht ziehen. Der größte Vorteil ist die Flexibilität der Lage und der schöne Ausblick vom Balkon. Man bekommt eine reale japanische Wohnerfahrung mitten in Tokyo. Der Gastgeber hat alles Nötige für die ersten Tage bereitgestellt (inkl. Snacks, Kaffee und Saft!) und war immer sofort erreichbar. Wir haben zufrieden ausgecheckt und würden die Unterkunft als erstes Ankunftsziel weiterempfehlen!

The stay was lovely and so clean! Very nice and quiet area, not too far from Shibuya. We arrived late into Tokyo and I booked it at the airport last minute - the instant book and self check in was so easy. Hong was so helpful and friendly and the response time was so fast!

This stay was perfect! Comfortable beds, great space, kitchen with everything you would need for a few nights stay. The area was very walkable and quiet with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The station was also very close, which was great for getting around Tokyo quickly! Would definitely stay hear again.

Selamlar tatilimiz harika geçti otel konusunda tedirgindim ama otele ve odaya girdiğim anda hepsi o anda geçti ciddi anlamda temizdi , ulaşım çok iyiydi gönül rahatlığı ile seçebilirsiniz 🙏

The host was incredibly kind and responsive — when we realized the place wasn’t the right fit for our family, they graciously allowed us to shorten our stay without any issues. The unit was clean, spacious for Tokyo standards, and very close to Shinjuku Station, which made getting around easy. That said, the building and surrounding area weren’t quite what we expected. It’s near the red-light district, which may not bother everyone, but it didn’t feel right for us. The building is older, with worn common areas. We saw puddles in the hallway — possibly from the weather — and generators nearby added some noise. The elevator also showed its age. With a young child who has sensory needs, it felt a bit overstimulating — not because of the host, but due to the building and neighborhood. If you’re okay with a grittier, urban, high-adult traffic area and want access to Shinjuku nightlife and trains, it could work well.

Enjoyed our stay here! It’s about 15 mins walk from ikebukuro station, slightly away from the hustle and bustle. The neighbourhood also felt safe for girls. There are also family mart and lawson nearby. Overall really convenient and space was really big for Tokyo standards
