While this house is beautiful and roomy, the staff is very disorganized and not helpful. We lost the whole day on a one day trip to Kyoto just trying to find the place.The link in the Airbnb manual took us to the wrong place, then the support staff sent us two more different locations, neither of which were correct. We took four different taxis all over town (about ¥20000) to finally arrive at the spot around 5:30/6pm. We got to Kyoto at 1:30 pm and started trying to get there right away. It was a complete nightmare.We use Airbnb's all the time and have visited Kyoto a ton of times and never had any problems like this. The company is disorganized and extremely difficult to communicate with.They refused to refund any money, even though our whole trip was wasted since we had to check out the next day and we were all so stressed and exhausted from just getting to put our bags down. We saw one temple, instead of seeing 4 or 5.My friend was in town from California and it was her first time to Kyoto. I felt so bad that her experience was so bad.I hope this company can get their act together, because the property is lovely and it's a good location near Kinkakujin, but it was such a hassle to get in. My husband was irate and our friends were bummed.I wish I could leave a better review, but we were unbelievably inconvenienced and our valuable time to explore was wasted- the staff refused to make it right in any way.

Nice experience for staying here. Staying in comfortable and private zone. Cooking and laundry are available here. Not easy to drive to the resident because the roads are too narrow.
