2 Bedroom House in Sumida, Tokyo

Good access to Skytree shopping mall and Asakusa!
Convenienct location for tourists!
A 70 year old traditional Japanese townhouse located in well known downtown, Mukojima, Tokyo. The house belongs to my husband who spent his childhood there. We are university professors, and the house was too small for us to live with our three children and lots of books, so we have never lived there. After 30 years, I found it quite cool as it looked remaining very nostalgic, which brought me back to the nice and old days of Japan. Now it is very rare to find this kind in Tokyo.
The house was renovated nicely with its original taste. There are two bedrooms; one with a double bed and the other with two singles. The bedrooms on the second floor are floored with tatami mats. There are small but cozy living space and a kitchenette in the first floor. Bathroom with a bathtub and shower head. You will find the 'washlet' in WC.
Since the house was built right after WWII, everything is made small according to the Japanese people's frame at that time. If you are way taller than 6 feet, you may find it a bit close and uneasy.

This 2 Bedrooms House provides accommodation with Hot Tub, Internet, Kitchen, for your convenience. This House features many amenities for guests who want to stay for a few days, a weekend or probably a longer vacation with family, friends or group. The rental House has 2 Bedrooms and 1 Bathroom to make you feel right at home.

Check to see if this House has the amenities you need and a location that makes this a great choice to stay in Sumida. Enjoy your stay in Sumida at this House.

Summary: We enjoyed all aspects of our stay at Sumire House. It’s cozy and safe tucked away in an area filled with families. Everything you need is within easy walking distance, bus just out the door and two major stations a ten minutes walk. The owner is quick to reply to any needs and concerns. Have fun in Tokyo…we did!

Summary: We enjoyed our stay at Sumire House. Communication was excellent from the start. Very charming traditional house and nicely located, far enough from the commercial shopping areas but with good access. Family Mart across the alley. Only caveat - street noise. A good pair of ear plugs worked well for me. Super clean house, well-supplied with all the basics. Comfortable beds with warm comforters. Would definitely stay again.

Summary: Unique and great stay at Sumire house. There's no other house like it in the neighbourhood. The proximity to the local shrine also adds to its charm. We loved the location - away from the hustble and bustle of major tourist areas but well connected via Hikifune and Sky tree station making it easy to get to destinations.We stayed during winter, and whilst there are heaters, the house isn't well insulated, and on the ground floor in particular and it can get rather cold. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and our hosts were also great and accommodating.

Summary: This was a very good place to stay overall with great communication from the hosts. It is close to 2 train lines and it was very easy to get from Oshiage Station to Haneda Airport with our luggage. Two things to be aware of: 1) It is very close to a main road and was noisy at night. Windows can also rattle in the wind (it is an older house, which is also part of it's charm). Provided earplugs were definitely needed and worked well for 2 of us. 2) Stairs to the second level are steep & can be challenging with larger than carry-on baggage size. Overall it was a place I would be happy to stay again. The local convenience store about 10 metres away was very friendly and a good source of readymade meals, snack items, milk and were kind enough to store our luggage after checkout.

Summary: This property was just as we imagined - full of character and charm. Conveniently located to trains, supermarkets, restaurants and so many fabulous attractions with Skytree a short walk away, the river, temples and shrines. Although small it accommodated our family of 4 quite comfortably.
