This place is wonderful! It has everything you could need, extremely clean, and is located in the best part of Kyoto! It is within walking distance to downtown Kyoto, the Hankyu, Keihan and Subway lines and many tourist spots. Best of all, the owner is the best host ever! He is extremely nice, helpful and thoughtful. I can't wait to stay there again with my family!

I chose it to experience a Japanese home near Cheongsusa Temple, and I am very satisfied. I really liked it from the moment I arrived. It felt good to start my Kyoto trip, and it was definitely the best trip. The host was also kind and helpful. Perhaps because it was Saturday the day we left, it was difficult to catch a taxi, but we were very grateful that they caught a taxi for us because we couldn't speak Japanese.

I stayed one night with my family of three.All I can say is wonderful.The exterior had a stylish Kyoto-like appearance, the interior was very clean, and there was enough space for 3 to 4 people to stay there.We had everything we needed and had a comfortable stay.And above all, the owner's personality was wonderful.He was extremely attentive, guiding me on my bicycle to a nearby parking lot, and explaining about nearby tourist attractions.I would definitely like to use it the next time I travel to Kyoto.It was a great satisfaction.

I was able to relax in a new, clean room with a lovely garden and feel like I was at home. The owner was very kind and gave us advice on sightseeing and restaurants. They might be able to tell you about hidden spots that aren't listed in guidebooks!There is also a washing machine, so we recommend using this as your base for multiple nights.
