We would give this property & host 6 stars if possible. Everything about the stay was outstanding. The host even helped us choose the best way to arrive from Osaka, not to mention the daily assistance/recommendations for food, sites, experiences. The property is quaint, with all the comforts of a modern home, but with so much more class. Easily fit our family of 5 with plenty of privacy. Simple access to public transportation and so close to many of the greatest Kyoto temple/old town destinations. Wonderful and would happily stay again. Thank you Masaru!

Cute house with good amenities.
5.0
We very much enjoyed using this home as our base while exploring Kyōto. Communication with Masaru was seamless and the house lovingly restored.
The kitchen was a bit tight which wasn’t a problem since we only had breakfast and snacks there. It would be a bit of a challenge to prepare a full meal, but there are many restaurants nearby and walking distance to subway and bus.
5.0
Clean, cute, easy access, easy check in, two bedrooms upstairs with toilet upstairs and downstairs; shower/bath downstairs. Great coffee-maker and hot water pot for tea. Bikes for using! A compact and efficient house that worked perfectly for 4 adults. The host was super responsive and there were maps and tourist pamphlets at the house. Excellent stay! *****5stars

We absolutely loved our stay in Kyoto. Masaru provided lots of handy information about the area and he was quick to respond to questions that we had. The townhouse was stunning and we loved the mix of tradition and modern features. The heating worked really well over the colder nights and we felt very cosy. The townhouse is also situated in an amazing traditional part of Kyoto.

This is the coolest houseI have stayed in Kyoto! There are bicycles available so you can also enjoy a ride in the Gion town. It is so spacious for two of us with kitchen and washing machine. Masaru is super helpful and gave us instruction on how to get to his place from Tokyo. I would definitely stay here again when I visit Kyoto!

We really liked this property! It has a lot of character. The owner provided lots of information about where things are and how to make our stay in Kyoto more comfortable. Thanks for letting us drop off our luggage before check-in time. And thank you for suggesting Sagan to eat at. We ate there twice! This was our favorite place to stay on our vacation and we would definitely come back here again.
