Maybe you don't understand who we work for or where we are based. We are based in Narita. This is not a rural Chiba location. It is a city. Granted, not as big as Tokyo, but a city nonetheless. There are many, many places to live in Narita that are within walking distance of the train stations. Houses, apartments, hotels. All within walking distance. There are some of our younger guys who live in Tokyo but in my opinion it really isn't necessary. If you want to experience the night life of Tokyo use the money you save on an apartment in Narita and take the train to Tokyo for the night.
We do not do min rest layovers in Narita. We really don't have min rest layovers outside of Taipei and Hong Kong. So don't think of Narita as a layover city. It is your base.
