Very clean machiya in a quiet neighborhood. Extremely convenient with a great supermarket literally around the corner. Many restaurants nearby and a good butcher too. We bought steaks and cooked dinner in the decently stocked kitchen. Lovely bathroom looking into a small Japanese garden. If I have to criticise, I would say add a few floor cushions (or chairs) and have a clothes rack in both bedrooms (there are absolutely nowhere to hang anything in the bedrooms). And more pillows for the each bed. But all in all a great place to stay.
