Guest reviews
“Beautiful place. If you are looking for a properly Japanese place, that is the one! Beds on the floor, good shower and great location: quiet, peaceful, close to temples and lots of coffee shops surrounded.”
“Quiet and beautiful~”
“Located in a quiet residential area near Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, it provided a high-quality private space. It's a pity that if the price goes up any further, it will be out of reach, but I would definitely like to use it again if I have the chance.”
“Everything is perfect.”
“nice”
“The location is close to Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, and the walk from the nearest station allows you to enjoy the charming streetscape of Kamishichiken. The inn itself was spacious and very lovely. This accommodation became a peaceful part of our trip. Thank you very much for this experience.”
“We had such a good sleep thank you!”
“Since I had a small child, I was very grateful for the large futon. The water area was also new and very clean. The bath was spacious as well. What bothered me was that the room didn't warm up at all with the heating equipment, making it very cold and tough; the stock of amenities and cleaning supplies was left fully visible everywhere, which was disappointing; and there were also some areas where I wished the room cleaning had paid a bit more attention to detail. As for the location, I couldn't reach it with the map provided, which was tough, but I received a quick reply to my inquiry, so I felt relieved. Overall, it was a compact yet convenient room, and I'm glad I could stay at this price. Thank you very much.”
