There is no way I could live there for any length of time! I'm not anywhere near as tall as Phil (5'1") but I do have claustrophobia and just watching this made me start feeling like I was starting to suffocate. 6 people??? I'd say 2 at the very most, but in my case, none! 😊 Kudos to you both for being flexible...both mentally and physically!😊
When I left home at 18 I lived in a nurses home. My study bedroom was 9' x 8'. I had a handbasin, chest of draws and built in wardrobe on one wall and a single bed, desk and chair on the other. We had a communal llounge, kitchen, bathrooms, toilets and laundry room. Most of the time I ate in the hospital canteen. So yes I've lived in smaller. I could quite happily live there, at least it has it's own kitchenette, shower and toilet. Since Japan has so many small convenience stores and restaurants it would be no hardship just to shop for daily supplies on the way home. I'd swop out the rice cooker for an airfryer oven as you can cook rice in a microwave and have a mini instant pot both of which I use now. I cook bread, muffins, cookies, cakes and can spit roast a chicken if I want to. I also have a single induction cooktop, so no cooker necessary. And a 10-20 piece capsule wardrobe would work very well. Also a daybed with storage boxes underneath and store what you don't use in the loft. Perfect for a single person who prefers to go out to see their friends. I currently live in a one bed bungalow of 50 sq ms.
People are soo financial poor...just live in a van build it yourself or rv will be 50% cheaper than this + it's remains yours and this apartment it's not...
What an interesting apartment. I saw on a couple of other Japanese micro apartment videos that the film on the widows is to keep the apartment warmer in the Winter. Great tour. thanks.
Greetings Orange County California. Just ran across this video of my feed and found it pretty interesting. As a retired single person that would be "okay" for me, but I would definitely need some more windows that I could see out of directly.
Very Cute place. I would switch the table and the couch. I thought I saw a pet carrier hanging on the wall and then when she was making the couch into a bed and curtain moved a bit. I thought I saw a black cat? @11:41 I wish you showed your pet if that was so. :)
My Sister In Law lived in the same sized Apt in Seoul, S. Korea. When my wife and i visited, the space was maxed out. Many Young Couples, Office Types and Professionals, buy these Apts because of the high cost of living in the City, where they work.
But that is NOT a life! It's like pay 300€ for 0,5 Liter of milk because... Na ja, too much cost for producing! I don't care! It's the base of live, CANNOT be expensive!
The tiny window in the "bedroom" if u crack that window while the AC is running it will pull the cool air toward that window and cool off the sleeping area.
I could stay there for 2 or 3 weeks with one other person... no more!😊 Im from New Zealand &have a 5 bedroom family home. My son is 6ft6..he was so awkward & squashed everywhere in japan! 😅
Today I realized I have Claustrophobia. I'm nearly 2 meters tall and my shoulders are over half meter wide. I think my sit upon is so large just getting into the toilet room would be a challenge, getting out a nightmare, and having the door closed.... oh, the horrors. I would have to duck every door lintel. I would have to be wary my sit upon doesn't knock the Ramen Pot off the burner. I am WAY too big for that teeny tiny doll house.
I get some degree of claustrphobia just by watching that. I cant recall whether it was you or another channel that showed a tiny place that was actually much more spacious than the place you rented there, despite it being smaller by squaremeters
A lot of people just use their lofts for storage. Most people have better couches than that. This American lived for four years in an apartment in Nagoya like that but with no loft and only a single bed a chair and a desk. Also my toilet was not in a separate room, it was part of the unit bath. You go to work, party a little, and come home, turn on the air con, take a shower and go to sleep and in the morning go to work…. By the way, it was only $235 a month.
I have lived in an apartment not much larger than that in the Philippines. They are cheap, less than $200 a month, but not very big! Barely enough space, really, for two adults. The apartment we have in Baguio, now, is bigger, it's a decent-sized two bedroom and a good-sized bath room, one can fit in without bumping the walls or door! It's not huge, but we don't feel cramped, either.
Thank you for this - I love this journey. However last night I had a nightmare that I was arrested and had to go to jail. My jail cell looked a lot like your apartment. I mean, there was one room with a huge window but I couldn't see out it nor open it. The jail employees had English accents so I couldn't understand them. Oh, and I was innocent.
I could do it. My first apartment used to be dorms. Each individual dorm had been renovated into a tiny (approx 16 sq m) apartment. I lived there for 2 years. But I'm only 1.47 m (4'10") so such a small space probably feels different for me.
The sad thing is is that I live in a tiny house, but for some reason that just seems so much more tinier I think because the design wasn’t done correctly like knees hitting to go to the toilet or they could’ve went all the way across with the countertop or all the clutter or my head hitting if I sat up in the middle of the night and the sad thing is, it’s expensive so that’s like what’s expected
Oh when I'm watching this place my Claustrophobia comes out and it feels like someone squishes my heart. İ could never live there. Noooo😅 But thank you for sharing this video.
I’m totally not surprised it was advertised for six people. Two to a bed. I figured that out quickly. It’s doable but not ideal. Not a lot of privacy & a long wait. I think it’s good for a group of three or a couple. If I were there, I would just utilize the folding bed downstairs to save time & my body from a fall! Haha! On a whole though, I love tiny apartments in Asia. You see people living happy, full lives with less material items. Very inspiring. It makes me look for tiny homes & apartments, but my husband said flat out NO 😂
How much does this place cost?! I can’t believe it!! You didn’t tell us the cost! No way can 2-6 people live in that place and still have space to put your stuff away! I’m so sorry for people in Tokyo. 😮😢
Zero ppl! This apartment is smaller than my bedroom. I’m very claustrophobic & I don’t think I could live there. It’s pretty cool how they use a limited space👍🏻
I lived for 2 months in an apartment pretty much like that one, except mine didn't have a loft and only had a tiny fridge underneath the sink. It was totally comfortable. The only thing I hated was the fact that I love cooking but there was no prep space. I loved it's high ceiling and big sunny windows. But yours was definitely bigger than mine. Oh! The toilet and wash room was only one piece so the toilet was more spacious, there was a tiny closet by the door and no washing machine, but at least there was a coin washer and dryer 2 floors down and a vending machine with cold beverages, even beer, at the lobby. My room at home is twice as big as that apartment, literally, and yet I loved it there.
@Mikichan85 I don't even know how to explain it. There was a chair and a desk by the foot of the bed, so I could sit to write, study, work, eat and watch movies on my tablet sitting down comfortably. There was a full bed with 2 big drawers beneath JJwhere I stored clothes. Tiny closet, about 2 feet wide. Maybe it was comfortable because I was alone or because I didn't have many things ceilings where very high, probably more than 15 feet high. If ever I got cabin fever I went outside to explore the town. Loved it
@tatianamt680 what u describe is a prison room... U must have the space for walk comfort, place for the pc, the accessories for that, a sitting place different for pc and TV and so. A different place for eat and one for game. Space for get up from bed, for put cloths.... And no, a pair of basketsand one MICRO closet are NOT enough for a newborn... For an adult impossible. Just even because u cannot do the washing machine everyday and wait at least one day for have dry cloths. What kind of life is that??? U MUST be confort at home, have hobbies there (and not "watch videos". That's NOT an hobby), collect something. SOMETHING. a BED ROOM (without sofa, kitchen, bathroom and so) MUST be 9mq (meter, not feet! Please use the normal measurements) in Italy. Similar in the rest of Europe. I STUDY that, I study for project houses and flats! I know what I'm talking about
No. No, I couldn't live there. I''m under 5' tall, but, I have Claustrophobia and this would not work. I had a panic attack just looking at the bathroom. Then when you went in, I wigged out!
I could live in it for a few months ..alone or with my little kid. But mostly me and maybe a goldfish 🐠...but I have no idea where to store my clothes ..toys ..books...where does all of that go? It needs a built in cupboard storage situation to work.. I have seen some aptms with box storage in the stairs. So yeah maybe it's a stretch saying few months. Maybe a week ?
I could live in that space. My husband and I traveled full time in a camper, then built a tiny house when covid shut down all the parks and campgrounds. We didn't have closets. And we didn't have a lot of "junk".
Being very honest, but this apartment is smaller than my utility shed that holds 3 motorcycles, a lawn tractor, a snowblower and deck furniture. At the same time, this is Tokyo, one of the most expensive land on the planet, one square meter in Tokyo will set you back 1.2 million yen or 7,500 Euros.
How much is the rent? I live in Tsurumi-ku, Yokohama in a place a bit bigger (no loft, I'm disabled but with a large storage room) and I pay 59,000 YEN a month.
Hilarious and Sad, this is an apartment for munchkins, nothing bigger! Can certainly understand why Tokyo is dealing with mental health issues. Have to say it’s a no way for me, even if you were munchkin size, you’d kill each other within a couple of weeks, or at least begin planning too,lol. How much was this ultra spacious suite, thinking you forgot to mention that. Thanks Deana and Phil, your muscles must be aching from scrunching just to get around each other. Makes you really appreciate wide open spaces.💕👍
I think I know this place. Its 1 minute from Ochiai station (Shinjuku). It rented about $500 -$600 (aud) per month (50,000 -60,000yen) in early 2024. Might not be this exact one, but I think i t is. But thats for long term tenants (ie 1 month or more) - dont have a clue re shorter term. It was built as an apartment (!!!!!) in 2017. Was never a house. OMG
Old building, small AF and how far from the station? This is definitely getting towards the bottom of the barrel other than stuff that's weird and not updated at all. There are 1Rs that get smaller and cheaper, they seem to be the specialty of older single salarymen and some of them are transient apartments, like only used M-F and then they go "home" for the weekend. And the thing is, if you go a few more stations outward, you can double or triple the apartment size for the same money.
These Japanese apartments have one huge advantage. You are forced not to evereat and get fat or you won't fit into your home any more. Best you throw in a few fast days every week, then you also don't have to use the toilet too often 🤣
No way i could manage to live there. I already feel overwhelmed by the lack of space and you cannot look outside...the bedroom...is so low..poor people...
Hi..It is cute but really no way...could I live in there..lol. U lost me at the cramped toilet closet....it's cute but I have mobility problems so a ladder wow.. a no go...and he is right the mats are too thin..my back wouldn't take it...point me to the Ramada or Radison or Hilton or something...but I admire ur spirit of adventure kids...let's adventure..all for that
I was thinking 1 adult and 1 child maybe seeing as there was only 1 chair and 1 sofathingy. Not more than that. But 6? I guess Japanese people usually aren't that big so they might fit in there. And yes i am dutch. If it was for the purpose of a roof over my head i would make it work, but i would drag those matresses down from the upstairs area, seeing as i am nightblind and would absolutely injure myself going to the bathroom.
How many people could you live with in an apartment of this size? 😁

Truly awful.
I actually live very close to where you were staying lol
i think you told us at the start, two people!
Me, myself and I 😅
2 people.
There is no way I could live there for any length of time! I'm not anywhere near as tall as Phil (5'1") but I do have claustrophobia and just watching this made me start feeling like I was starting to suffocate. 6 people??? I'd say 2 at the very most, but in my case, none! 😊
Kudos to you both for being flexible...both mentally and physically!😊
Watching Phil struggle in the toilet room had me in stitches! Thanks for showing us this apartment. A unique experience, for sure!
That’s wild! Thanks for taking the time to pack everything up to show us.
I truly can say, I've seen van builds larger than this.
I’m getting claustrophobia by watching you guys in that tiny space, I swear I do😮
I reckon the perception of how many people could live here will differ vastly between depending where people are from. 😊
Yeah, if you grew up in a slum. This is a luxury.
I don't think I could cope with living in such a small space for more than a couple days, even by myself.
Oh, i love a surprise video on wednesdays. Möh. 🤗I love your style of travelling, dude. Everything in there is put together so geniusly.
When I left home at 18 I lived in a nurses home. My study bedroom was 9' x 8'. I had a handbasin, chest of draws and built in wardrobe on one wall and a single bed, desk and chair on the other.

Perfect for a single person who prefers to go out to see their friends. I currently live in a one bed bungalow of 50 sq ms.
I would like to be able to live in a smaller place with less stuff, but that might be too small for me.
That's because you want a small apartment, and this is a storage closet.
You want small but open concept
That's impossible
@@nntflow7058yeah, exactly
People are soo financial poor...just live in a van build it yourself or rv will be 50% cheaper than this + it's remains yours and this apartment it's not...
Feel claustrophobic looking at this tiny living space
What an interesting apartment. I saw on a couple of other Japanese micro apartment videos that the film on the widows is to keep the apartment warmer in the Winter. Great tour. thanks.
Greetings Orange County California. Just ran across this video of my feed and found it pretty interesting. As a retired single person that would be "okay" for me, but I would definitely need some more windows that I could see out of directly.
The guy at first speaks with a Jamaican accent. I love the toilet. You could actually nap on that wall. Perfection well done. 👌
Very Cute place. I would switch the table and the couch. I thought I saw a pet carrier hanging on the wall and then when she was making the couch into a bed and curtain moved a bit. I thought I saw a black cat? @11:41 I wish you showed your pet if that was so. :)
In my experience airplane toilet rooms are larger than that one! 😂😆🤣

My son is 6ft6..he was so awkward & squashed everywhere in japan! 😅
napping on the toilet! i’m sold 😂
Love ur videos ;)
Oh my stars! I think my RV is bigger than that whole apartment. Especially the toilet area 🤣
that bedroom is super cozy!

This is for big people and you just make the toilet bigger.
I can't believe it's Shinjuku! Amazing!
This looks so much like the Oshiage, Tokyo apartment we stayed in on our trip to Japan!
What I have seen on Tokyo Lense, that looks like a giant appartment :o
I get some degree of claustrphobia just by watching that. I cant recall whether it was you or another channel that showed a tiny place that was actually much more spacious than the place you rented there, despite it being smaller by squaremeters
OMG 6 ARE YOU SERIOUS, NO WAY😮😮
I could live there solo, but it’s too tight for both me and my husband for a long period of time- we would be at each other before long
Loved the video! Too teeny tiny! They should installed a sliding door for the toilet room!
Oh! You didn't mention how much rentals are in Tokyo. I'm assuming it's quite expensive

The food vending machines are awesome.
Very interesting
Thank you for this - I love this journey. However last night I had a nightmare that I was arrested and had to go to jail. My jail cell looked a lot like your apartment. I mean, there was one room with a huge window but I couldn't see out it nor open it. The jail employees had English accents so I couldn't understand them. Oh, and I was innocent.
The cracks in the wall outside ,seen through the window 😮
I could do it. My first apartment used to be dorms. Each individual dorm had been renovated into a tiny (approx 16 sq m) apartment. I lived there for 2 years. But I'm only 1.47 m (4'10") so such a small space probably feels different for me.
If they had put the toilet where the "bathtub" is they would have saved space, could have more closet space, and made a more practical toilet.
I live in a very small house by American standards, but that apartment is micro-tiny.
47 years ago I had a squat toilet but beautiful tatami mats in Tokyo megaru ku - went to the public baths - ah so
he looks like Brendan Fraser, when he was young, of course..... 📸
The sad thing is is that I live in a tiny house, but for some reason that just seems so much more tinier I think because the design wasn’t done correctly like knees hitting to go to the toilet or they could’ve went all the way across with the countertop or all the clutter or my head hitting if I sat up in the middle of the night and the sad thing is, it’s expensive so that’s like what’s expected
I can’t imagine living in such tight quarters.
Funny thing is, my Canadian studio is bigger... but has a much smaller entrance! Because it has none, you walk right into the kitchen from the door.
@6'8" I would not do well in that space.
MAYBE if i was not on the top and had a level bedroom ceiling - but that ladder would need to be beefed up.
You’re in my neighborhood! 😂
Oh when I'm watching this place my Claustrophobia comes out and it feels like someone squishes my heart. İ could never live there. Noooo😅
But thank you for sharing this video.
I’m totally not surprised it was advertised for six people. Two to a bed. I figured that out quickly. It’s doable but not ideal. Not a lot of privacy & a long wait. I think it’s good for a group of three or a couple. If I were there, I would just utilize the folding bed downstairs to save time & my body from a fall! Haha!
On a whole though, I love tiny apartments in Asia. You see people living happy, full lives with less material items. Very inspiring. It makes me look for tiny homes & apartments, but my husband said flat out NO 😂
How much does this place cost?! I can’t believe it!! You didn’t tell us the cost! No way can 2-6 people live in that place and still have space to put your stuff away! I’m so sorry for people in Tokyo. 😮😢
Absolutely no way. I’m comfortable living alone in 2300 sq. ft. Fits me just right.
Zero ppl! This apartment is smaller than my bedroom. I’m very claustrophobic & I don’t think I could live there. It’s pretty cool how they use a limited space👍🏻
I lived for 2 months in an apartment pretty much like that one, except mine didn't have a loft and only had a tiny fridge underneath the sink. It was totally comfortable. The only thing I hated was the fact that I love cooking but there was no prep space. I loved it's high ceiling and big sunny windows. But yours was definitely bigger than mine. Oh! The toilet and wash room was only one piece so the toilet was more spacious, there was a tiny closet by the door and no washing machine, but at least there was a coin washer and dryer 2 floors down and a vending machine with cold beverages, even beer, at the lobby. My room at home is twice as big as that apartment, literally, and yet I loved it there.
Less that this, CONFORTABLE? HOW????
@Mikichan85 I don't even know how to explain it. There was a chair and a desk by the foot of the bed, so I could sit to write, study, work, eat and watch movies on my tablet sitting down comfortably. There was a full bed with 2 big drawers beneath JJwhere I stored clothes. Tiny closet, about 2 feet wide. Maybe it was comfortable because I was alone or because I didn't have many things ceilings where very high, probably more than 15 feet high. If ever I got cabin fever I went outside to explore the town. Loved it
@tatianamt680 what u describe is a prison room...
U must have the space for walk comfort, place for the pc, the accessories for that, a sitting place different for pc and TV and so. A different place for eat and one for game.
Space for get up from bed, for put cloths.... And no, a pair of basketsand one MICRO closet are NOT enough for a newborn... For an adult impossible.
Just even because u cannot do the washing machine everyday and wait at least one day for have dry cloths.
What kind of life is that???
U MUST be confort at home, have hobbies there (and not "watch videos". That's NOT an hobby), collect something.
SOMETHING.
a BED ROOM (without sofa, kitchen, bathroom and so) MUST be 9mq (meter, not feet! Please use the normal measurements) in Italy.
Similar in the rest of Europe.
I STUDY that, I study for project houses and flats!
I know what I'm talking about
I couldn’t live there it would drive me crazy fast.
No. No, I couldn't live there. I''m under 5' tall, but, I have Claustrophobia and this would not work. I had a panic attack just looking at the bathroom. Then when you went in, I wigged out!
I could live in it for a few months ..alone or with my little kid. But mostly me and maybe a goldfish 🐠...but I have no idea where to store my clothes ..toys ..books...where does all of that go? It needs a built in cupboard storage situation to work.. I have seen some aptms with box storage in the stairs. So yeah maybe it's a stretch saying few months. Maybe a week ?
Nice couple
I didn’t hear you mention the cost nightly?
Yea, I could live there for a week, but not a week and a day!
I was going to say 6 people!! 4 kids up in the loft and mom and dad down in the living room..
I could live in that space. My husband and I traveled full time in a camper, then built a tiny house when covid shut down all the parks and campgrounds. We didn't have closets. And we didn't have a lot of "junk".
Eu amei 🐈 💗 🇧🇷 🎉
Love bidets
six people? no way....
damn, am 6ft5 Japanese apartments would be almost impossible for me!! i think my feet wouldnt fit in the toilet room""
Don’t think you guys mentioned the cost for this apt tho. 🤔
Being very honest, but this apartment is smaller than my utility shed that holds 3 motorcycles, a lawn tractor, a snowblower and deck furniture.
At the same time, this is Tokyo, one of the most expensive land on the planet, one square meter in Tokyo will set you back 1.2 million yen or 7,500 Euros.
How much is the rent? I live in Tsurumi-ku, Yokohama in a place a bit bigger (no loft, I'm disabled but with a large storage room) and I pay 59,000 YEN a month.
Looks like something out of a post apocalyptic movie.
Eu amei o tamanho do apartamento. Mas usaria o loft como area de armazenamento. Uma cama com gavetas é essencial pra mim!
Zum piepen :-) Ich finde, ihr solltet noch vier Leute rein bitten und ein weiteres Video über einen Tag in der "Wohnung" drehen. Hahaha
Hello. How much is this per week?
I'm guessing that apartment will be meant for 2 to 4 people because of the upstairs sleeping area
Hilarious and Sad, this is an apartment for munchkins, nothing bigger! Can certainly understand why Tokyo is dealing with mental health issues. Have to say it’s a no way for me, even if you were munchkin size, you’d kill each other within a couple of weeks, or at least begin planning too,lol.

But thats for long term tenants (ie 1 month or more) - dont have a clue re shorter term. It was built as an apartment (!!!!!) in 2017. Was never a house.
OMG
How much is the rent for the week ?
Well is like living in a campervan 😅🚙 and in fact, is better the camper 'cause you can move!
Maybe a teenager, but that would be about it.Who the heck designs these places?These are crazy
I suppose one could adapt, but it's definitely not ideal for someone used to a lot more space.
Old building, small AF and how far from the station? This is definitely getting towards the bottom of the barrel other than stuff that's weird and not updated at all.
There are 1Rs that get smaller and cheaper, they seem to be the specialty of older single salarymen and some of them are transient apartments, like only used M-F and then they go "home" for the weekend.
And the thing is, if you go a few more stations outward, you can double or triple the apartment size for the same money.
These Japanese apartments have one huge advantage. You are forced not to evereat and get fat or you won't fit into your home any more. Best you throw in a few fast days every week, then you also don't have to use the toilet too often 🤣
Apt for 3?
Those “stairs” are reminiscent of a ski boat ladder… the kind that breaks under the weight of my waterlogged girth
I'm going to guess 6 persons, max. Got be young at heart though, super tolerant of confined spaces.
No way i could manage to live there. I already feel overwhelmed by the lack of space and you cannot look outside...the bedroom...is so low..poor people...
Why do I think the toilet has a 'drinking fountain' feature on top?
Hi..It is cute but really no way...could I live in there..lol. U lost me at the cramped toilet closet....it's cute but I have mobility problems so a ladder wow.. a no go...and he is right the mats are too thin..my back wouldn't take it...point me to the Ramada or Radison or Hilton or something...but I admire ur spirit of adventure kids...let's adventure..all for that
i coould stay there myself, i would set it up differently but it would be ok for me ALONE , occasional guest.
That’s why Japanese use love hotel
Sure I could live there. Alone. Lol.
Yeah... no. I couldn't deal w/ the lack of storage cupboards or closets. I can't stand stuff sitting out.
I live in Japan and my apartment has longer walk from the entrance to kitchen with 3 steps😂
You forgot to mention the price
it totally reminds me of the lizards and frogs at the pet store. that isle.
I was thinking 1 adult and 1 child maybe seeing as there was only 1 chair and 1 sofathingy. Not more than that. But 6? I guess Japanese people usually aren't that big so they might fit in there. And yes i am dutch.
If it was for the purpose of a roof over my head i would make it work, but i would drag those matresses down from the upstairs area, seeing as i am nightblind and would absolutely injure myself going to the bathroom.
time to move to another location?
