Loved by guests
"The property was a perfect taste of traditional life in a residential suburb of kyoto, while not being too far away from tourist sites."
"Especially loved the delicious tea, guidebook and the onsen kit provided in the room."
"Not only is it in a beautiful sympathetically renovated Kyoto town house, with wooden floors and beautifully painted doors and a lot of natural wood, but a business that aims to take steps toward sustainability, like reusable towels, no single use items, and renting out free bicycles to guests, when, of course, cycling is the best way to see Kyoto."
