The historical (Bikam) street is a 25 minute walk (15 past the train station). It is a one-room (bachelor) unit. The futons need to be set up where the table and “chairs” are in the pictures. Once the sleeping arrangements are set up, there is no sitting room. I think it would be perfect for 2 (because no futons needed). Tight for 3 (in my case: two adults and a teenager). "

The design of this apartment is very stylish with a perfect blend of modernity and old architecture.

It is spacious, comfortable, and a perfect location- it's a very short walk to the museums, canals, etc. The house is very big for two people but we had a great time staying in a traditional Japanese accommodation after a few nights in hotels.
