Friendly and adorable host, she was very nice to us and had some very detailed instructions on how to get here from Kyoto station, as well recommendations for nearby sightseeing and food. Family mart (convenience store) is a couple of door downs to buy food and drinks. 10 mins away from nearby bus station (Takano). Bikes are provided by the host for free to ride.

Booked a room for our family months in advance over Air B&B. 2 weeks before our stay they told us we would have to cancel due to the 180 days rule in Kyoto but could book directly with them.After we cancelled the air b&b Reservation they just ghosted us, so we had to book a new room in Kyoto 2 weeks before arriving in sakura season. No need to tell you, that we lost a LOT of money because of this dishonest communication.Hopefully our complaint with air b&b will have some consequences so you will not the same mistake.Deeply disappointed.
