Nice and authentic guesthouse with beautiful garden and cozy lounge zone. Near bunch of cool sights: Kyomizu dera, Yasaka shrine, Gion District etc. Hiro was a very nice and helpful host. I felt like home in this stay:)

The landlord is handsome and speaks very good English. He also understands my simple English. I arrived early and checked in early when the room was available, saving me the time of turning back and checking in during the tour. The layout of the entire B&B is like a compact courtyard, with a calmly arranged garden in the middle: a carp pond and a blooming crape myrtle tree. We live on the second floor. The first floor has a kitchen and a corridor where you can relax, drink tea and watch gardening. A total of 5 households can live here, and I saw many European tourists living here. There are tatami mats indoors, so it's no problem to accommodate 3 people. There is a separate bathroom (shower + bathtub) separated from dry and wet areas and a separate toilet room. For a two-story house with a wooden structure, you need to estimate the sound when climbing stairs and walking around. The biggest advantage here is that it is very close to Yasaka Shrine, Twonenhan, Threenianzaka, and Kiyomizudera Temple. There are various Japanese restaurants, cafes, 711 FamilyMart, and small clinics on the road. You can also reach Kamogawa River within a short walk. Or four business districts.

Gorgeous traditional house in an exceptionally well-located area of Kyoto. We had the very traditional room - tatami mats and futons on the floor to sleep on. A view of the koi-filled pond just outside our room made it picture perfect. There’s a very adequate shared kitchen and the hotel is walking distance to some great little cafes and restaurants, as well as some of the major temples and shrines in the area. The English speaking host, Hiro, was a great help in pointing out local eating places.
