Kyoto stay
Your property was a welcome home away from home. It was very clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. The only problem we had was with the washing machine/dryer. It took many hours of drying for the clothes to dry. We enjoyed our stay.

Outstanding place! A must stay!
What a great place to stay!!! Instead of self check in, our hosts greeted us at the door. The entrance is lovely and the place itself was ideal for our family of 6. Kei N and her husband showed us around, went through the details of the place and even gave us a bottle of sake. Everything was fresh, clean and appeared in top condition. Plenty of bed options as well as bathrooms. Pictures are accurate and an easy walk to connect to wherever you are going.

As promised
The listing was exactly what it said. The owner and his assistant were super helpful and explained the features of the home. We were able to do laundry, which was a great feature.

Host profile image
Hi. My name is Kei. I was born and raised in Kyoto. My family has lived here for more than 250 years. I renovated my houses and started B&B simply because it's very fantastic to meet new guests and to have conversations with them. As a genuine Kyotoite, it would be great if I can show you the core beauty of Kyoto.
