It is really a great experience to sit in a house among the Japanese. In addition, the facilities in the house are really great. The bed is really heavenly!!! We have been to many hotels in recent days but in this bed I slept like a baby. There is a sandwich maker, coffee maker, kettle and hob. There is even a washing machine that can do the laundry within an hour. The location of the house is also great, you can reach some beautiful neighborhoods of Kyoto in a fifteen to half hour walk.
