Guest reviews
“Great place and great location. Really nice apartment with everything you need to feel comfortable. Host was excellent, communicated well and was very accommodating with check in times. Over all a great experience.”
“Very good accommodation experience”
“It's really about a minute from the subway station, and 3-5 minutes to Tsutenkaku. The most convenient thing is the washer-dryer combo, and there's also a drying rack. The water pressure is strong, and the place is very clean. Before the trip, I chatted with the host and discussed the whole itinerary. The host gave many great suggestions, just like family. Also, the best part is that there's a smoking area set up by the host right outside the house, so you don't have to sneak a smoke like elsewhere. The Tsutenkaku market is nearby, super convenient.”
“The place is easy to find, about 10 minutes from Togetsukyo Bridge. There are convenience stores and restaurants nearby. The guesthouse is clean and newly renovated. The air conditioning is really as the host said, very cold 👍”
“Nice location on the west side of Kyoto.”
“Muji-style accommodation, recommended”
“A very lovingly and beautifully decorated, bright apartment. The owner has very good taste! It has everything you need and in very good quality. (Washing machine, Dyson hairdryer, new toilet, microwave, kettle, etc.) Everything very clean. We slept very well. Good mattresses and quiet location. Occasionally a dog barked, otherwise very quiet location. Train station and small supermarket are a 2-minute walk away. Excursions: On foot, you can reach the Bamboo Forest / various temples in Arashiyama in 20 minutes. In 10 minutes to the Arashiyama Monkey Park. By taxi, it takes 30 minutes to the Golden Temple. The accommodation is highly recommended!! There were three of us there. Thank you for everything!!!”
“Beautiful location, would highly recommend, accommodating host!”
