We stayed in the Kaze and Sora for 4 nights when visiting Kyoto. The houses were extremely clean and well organized. We definitely appreciated having the washer/dryer in the home. Location of the property was great. It took us just a few minutes to walk to the closest train station. The host Kei and his assistants especially Mika were very helpful, accommodating and flexible. Definitely recommend this property to anyone visiting Kyoto.

My family and I had a great stay in the "Sora" property, which was the perfect size for our group of 5. The house was clean, charming, and in a quiet residential neighborhood. Mika was wonderful and responsive both prior to our arrival as well as greeting us and showing us around the house. We did not meet the owner, but he gifted us a nice bottle of sake which we thoroughly enjoyed! The location was wonderful - walking distance to many temples in the region, as well as about 30 minutes walk to Kiyomizudera and surrounding shopping areas. One thing to note, the streets leading to the property get narrower and narrower, so if traveling to/from by car or taxi, I recommend setting your location to the nearest main street intersection which is just steps away. Japanese taxi drivers insist on bringing you right to the door, and we had a few instances where the cabs got stuck or had a lot of trouble backing out from the narrow streets. Overall we loved our stay in Kyoto and wish we had more time. Would definitely stay here again!

This was a lovely home and was such a welcome change from hotels. Kei and Mika were so welcoming and helpful. We needed to find the special gift envelopes for a wedding and sent us lots of links. The location is perfect and quiet and easy to get around.

A lovely, well-cared-for home in a historic neighborhood of Kyoto. Our host, Kei, was very welcoming and gracious. We only wish we had more time to stay and explore all that Kyoto has to offer!

Mr Nakamura and his son were super helpful and gracious, they explained everything we needed to know about the property and they were so friendly. The property is located in a cozy neighborhood and allows for easy, close access to everything. Mr. Nakamura maintained good contact prior to our arrival to make sure everything was ready for our needs. We wish we would have been at this property longer, and we would readily recommend it to anyone going to Kyoto.
