We requested a room from the Inari Inn so that our family could attend the Gion Festival. The listing looked wonderful and we were quite excited to stay there. However, we didn’t get the courtesy of a response from the owner. After a couple of days, Airbnb (we were booking through them) helped us out by cancelling the request so that we could look for other hosts. Unfortunately, by then the prices of nearby accommodations had gone up. So for us, the response time was not very good and the result was quite disappointing.
