It was a comfy Room with enouth space for everything. The bath was clean 10 min walk to the nearest station.

The walls are litrally made of paper wenn a person in another room talks he could aswell be talking in your room, but thats not much of a problem since everyone was polite exept someone starts snoring witch you kan allso hear like hes next to you

I loved the house and the neighborhood. All of it was so beautiful. Right in the "backyard" is a nature walk so perfect if you love that. The futon was super confortable and the bed sheet extremely soft.

It is a bit further from the center city, and its definitely a place you would like to spend more time in rather than just sleep. So if your plans are mostly in center Kyoto its not the best decision, but if you plan a nice nature relax day then its perfect! I just wish I had done that. Also not the property fault but as you share the house with others you might be woken up as you tend to hear every footstep.

The house is in a quiet location of beautiful family houses, up on a hill. The forest is right behind, a beautiful path starts there. The room was pretty, traditional Japanese, there was a whole shared kitchen and good bathroom with two showers. Toilets are on both floors. It felt quite home-like. We could borrow an umbrella. The owner was very kind and helped us plan our program in Kyoto, and she also let us ship our luggage to the house.

One of our mattresses seemed to be a bit overused. There is a washing machine that works but the dryer doesn't work, we tried for 3 cycles but our clothes were still wet. We slept with our heads by the window and when the AC was turned off, cold air from the direction of the window flowed on us. The wifi was often very weak so I wouldn't recommend this house if you plan to work, for holiday it's fine.

The accomodation is in a nice neighborhood with plenty local restaurants, beautiful nature and a well connected train/ bus station close by. The bed was comfortable and the room spacious. Tammy was a kind host, who answered quickly and was very helpful. You share the house with other guests so the overall cleanliness always depends a little on those, but the "public" rooms get cleaned quite regularly by the host. We had a great stay!

I loved the location and the proximity to the canal and walking area. The proximity to the subway helped offset concerns around being more out of the way as a less than 15 minute walk would take me to the subway.

The only issue I had was with how it appeared I could hear others on the property very clearly. I’m uncertain if it was just very noisy or if sound just travels that way usually.

I after using this location 5 years prior and having an exceptional stay, I knew I would be using it again. The owner is lovely and was extremely friendly during the whole trip, this was my partners first time in Japan and I wanted to give her an authentic experience in a ryokan that usually is hard to get in modern hotels. The location and links to transport in the city really helped immerse us in the country. I would recommend this location to anyone visiting Kyoto

Nice kitchen/common space in quiet location. Decent sized Japanese style room with modern bathrooms. The residential neighborhood is quite pleasant and has some, but not many restaurants, supermarkets, etc.

The hotel is up a steep hill and rather far from the station. Not the most convenient location if sightseeing in Kyoto is your priority. Some of the shoji were broken.

We liked our tatami rooms with ample closet space, the large kitchen for cooking / eating, the location was very convenient to a major subway line that let us connect to anywhere we wanted to go. The residential neighborhood is lovely, and quiet at night. It was great having use of a washer and dryer. The host does not live on site, but was super responsive and helpful. The cleaning staff was pleasant and friendly.

We had a hard time figuring out how to operate the stove -- a sign or instructions in English would help.

Excellent rooms, owner was very helpful in helping us find our way around Kyoto and attractions. Rooms were large compared to other ryokan we've stayed at. Great for the price!

Location is a few minutes uphill from the nearest subway, so it would be best to get your luggage shipped if it is heavy or you have difficulties carrying it.

Our stay in the Hostel was great! The room was furnished with traditional Japanese tatami and it was a great experience to sleep there. The private onsen is usable for free as a group and was an awesome experience. The staff spoke English very well so communication was easy and no problem at all. Had a great stay!
