Where to stay? Ebisu, Ginza, Nakano..?

I'm struggling to decide where to stay! We're a millennial couple and enjoy areas within walking distance of a few things like specialty coffee shops. Think East Village/Lower East Side instead of Times Square if comparing to NYC. It seems like Shibuya is a little too busy and maybe the restaurants aren't as great. I worry Ginza wouldn't feel neighborhood-y enough. We aren't super foodies that go to Michelin star restaurants but do like nicer dinners rather than budget-friendly chains. I'd like to be close-ish to an area we can do some street photography at night. Ebisu or Daikanyama appear to be good options but there are hardly any hotels around. Our budget is around $250/night. I hear there are tons of restaurants in Nakano…just not sure if that's too far out of the way? Would love some help on this! Probably overthinking it.
