The best accommodation in our whole month trip to Japan!! This place was huge and was filled with so many careful touches and thoughts to make our stay even more enjoyable and comfortable. There are booklets upon booklets of tourist information that the owner has written by hand to show you what restaurants to go to, how to get to the shrines and temples nearby, how to use the public transport etc. The time and effort he has clearly put into this place is outstanding. This was also the biggest apartment we stayed in and it was worth every penny! Having a full kitchen where we could cook and plenty of dining space and relaxing space was so nice and refreshing. The owner also got us a gift of some matcha chocolates and let us use the dryer for free as it was raining for most of our stay. So kind and considerate and was so helpful throughout our stay, also letting us check in early and leave our luggage after check out. Honestly, you will not regret booking this place! 😍

The apartment is up some very steep stairs and there is only a key to the outside door and not to the apartment door- the entrance is shared with the office (a separate door to enter but linked by an internal door) so it was a bit strange not being able to lock the actual apartment for privacy reasons but it felt safe and we had no issues at all during our stay. Might be nice to invest in a key/ lock to the upstairs door though 😊

I like that the location was a bit farther away from the city center but at the same time quite close to bus stops and the Tofukuji station, which is only one station away from Kyoto Station. The inn has an old vibe to it which made us feel like we were not staying in a place that’s meant for typical airbnbs or hostels. It really felt like home in a residential place and didn’t feel touristy at all. The manager was nice and accommodating. I would recommend it

The stairs were too steep but if you’re below 50 and have no mobility issues then you should be fine. Other than that I have no complaints

great stay in kyoto. the owner/ property manager probably has what you need. the price is unbeatable. they waited for us even when we got there after 11 pm due to flight delays. comfy beds, spacious with separate living, dining, kitchen area. i’ll love to stay longer next time

more than 15 mins to the nearest train station, bus stop about 7 mins. away. not a problem because uber/ taxi to kyoto stn. takes about 10 minutes and less than ¥1500.

The host was super responsive and understanding. We were driving from Osaka to Kyoto. The traffic was holding us back and some minor hiccups along the way, Mr Taka was telling us not to hurry despite it's already 8pm.

The location is the setback but if you are driving, this place is not an issue. There is only one nearby supermarket, FRESCO, that is open 24 hours. There are no restaurants as well, so it's best to eat before heading back.

Although the location was a bit far from certain train lines and bus stations, it’s a very cozy atmosphere and everything that you may need for a comfortable stay is provided for. Definitely would recommend for anyone travelling in a small group, especially those energetic enough to explore and stay a bit further away from conventional transport such as buses and trains.

Excellent host. Very welcoming. Kimono rental on Tueaday, Thursday and Saturday for a bit of fun. Not too far from Tofukuji train station or Imagumano bus stop.

Uphill for all main transport stops and at least 15 minutes walk. Nice quiet neighbourhood though.

Everything. It even seem too perfect for the price. The beds were great and there is everything you may need (kitchen, dining table, washing machine, dryer, ...), the room is huge and the staff was very nice and quick to answer our questions.

Nothing.

The apartment was a great size for a family of four and it’s in a great location, walking distance to major sites.

A drying stand for washed clothes would be useful. Or maybe it was somewhere I couldn’t find it.

Spacial, clean and good location!

Great place for facilities and room size! It's exactly as described. Great location and price for Kyoto!
