I've got not the slightest idea why you find this confusing. The article clearly states that it is located in Akihabara and that it is close to Akiba station. As you obviously already have searched for it via Google Maps, you should also see that the latter information is also true, because according to Google Maps the place is located about 500m north-east of the eastern exit of that station.
Moreover, I really don't understand why you think the article would instead describe it as being in Shinjuku???
Also keep in mind that in Japan the streets don't have names and the buildings don't have numbers like they have here in the west (well they do have numbers but those numbers add up to city blocks and not streets and they are churned out in arcane ways) and this already explains why it's hard to give a more detailed location. But fortunately we got google maps today. Believe, it was really a hassle finding places in Japan before that service was available!
