The keys to the property were on an electronic basis so the code arrived in a text message. We never met the hosts. The house itself was gorgeous, very clean and offered the perfect opportunity to sample minimalist Japanese living. The property also offered a washing machine and tumble drier. An absolute godsend for those who have been travelling for a while and in need to refresh their travelling wardrobe. The accomodation was very quiet and the beds very comfortable. A convenience store called "Family Mart" is nearby and in my experience is the best place to withdraw cash from their cash machines.

Nothing. It was perfect.

We were impressed with the house! It was beautiful and spacious. The host was kind and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay! About 12 minutes walk to Nishiki market and shopping area.

Everything was great. Nothing to complain.

My father-in-law and mother-in-law like the experience of staying in a machiya very much. The rooms on the east side are divided into two types, one with beds and one with tatami mats, and they are separated by a Japanese-style door, which fully meets our needs. We had a comfortable and relaxing stay in this well maintained traditional house and everyone got a good night's sleep. There are so many great izakaya nearby, we really like this area and it was our favorite place to stay in Japan. There is a washing machine and dryer in the house, which is very convenient for rainy days. I want to stay here next time I come to Kyoto.

It is difficult to book for four consecutive nights in peak season, otherwise we hope to stay longer.

I had an amazing experience staying at this wonderful place in Kyoto. The facilities were top-notch and the host was extremely welcoming and accommodating. The attention to detail in the room was impressive, with thoughtful touches like a Bose speaker and comfortable pajamas provided for guests. The two yards were also a great addition and provided a relaxing outdoor space to enjoy. The abundance of plates and different kinds of cups made it easy for us to enjoy meals in the comfort of our own space. Overall, this is a great place for families or friends looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Kyoto. Highly recommend!

Probably the best house that you can ever find in the town of Kyoto! It's best to stay together with a group of friends. The living room which has the double volume ceiling height with an outdoor garden at the side is the prettiest scene that you can wake up to everyday. We stayed for quite a long time (4 nights) in the house, and we didn't want to leave!

Nothing that I can think of.

If you can stay here, do. It is utterly fabulous. There are not enough superlatives in the English language.

Beautiful, Serene and zen

Would have like a little biscuit or something to have with tea
