    Great authentic traditional Japanese style rooms. The host is really nice and accomodating! We enjoyed our stay very much. The location is peaceful and quiet, and just a short busride away from many interesting temples and attractions of west Kyoto.

    The hosts are so lovely and kind! They were really flexible with my check in despite me arriving there well before the designated time. It's the perfect amount of space for a solo traveler; the tatami style room was very cozy and comfortable....
