It's not very close to the subway station, but it's perfectly acceptable. The room was clean and the facilities were quite new. Shirakawa is right outside the door, making it easy to walk to Ninenzaka, Sannenzaka, and Kiyomizu-dera Temple in the morning.

3 rooms, one with a big bed, one with two single beds, and another with a living room with a table, perfect for family outings. The small river in front of the door is especially popular with kids, and there are ducks🦆. It's just opposite Chion-in Temple. It's also close to the main road. Very convenient.
The key point is that the landlord will send an email before check-in, notifying you to pay the accommodation tax and register before you can get the password. I also got it on the day of check-in. Neither the agent nor Ctrip could contact the landlord, but fortunately I completed these procedures smoothly on the day of check-in. To be honest, I was still very worried. Fortunately, it was safe.

Next to Chien-in Temple, there is Shirakawa River in front of the door, with willows hanging on it. There is a single-wide stone bridge on the left, a small bridge for cars on the right, and a waterfront platform on the opposite side. People passing by can't help but sit down and take a look. Take a break. Extremely peaceful and peaceful. We walked back and forth on the stone bridge countless times and took many beautiful photos. The first floor of the Machiya is a kitchen, bathroom, shower room, washing machine with dryer and a large bed room. The second floor is a living room and a twin room. The decoration is very new, very comfortable and clean. Two shortcomings, 1. There are no tables and chairs on the entire first floor. I don’t know why there are no tables and chairs next to the kitchen, but a large closet for hanging clothes is designed. You can either stand while eating or carry it upstairs; 2. The upstairs There is no bathroom on the street, so you have to run down to the bathroom in the middle of the night. However, despite its flaws, I still like this house very much. If you come to Kyoto, you must experience a machiya, so this is the place. In addition, this hotel will send you an email to ask you to pay the Japanese tax at the store, register all the check-in information online, and notify the other party before it will send you the check-in password. I did it late and found out one day in advance. Yes, I haven’t received an email the next day after it was done (the day I checked in), and I couldn’t contact the store, nor could Ctrip! Fortunately, Ctrip finally contacted me. It was a false alarm. Everyone arrived in front of the door, but a pile of luggage couldn't get in. This was the first time I encountered it. So remember to check the store’s information early and get rid of these things early.

Wonderful first visit, ideally located.
The place is excellent. You can hear sound from downstairs to upstairs but that’s okay. Bed is comfortable, kitchen has all the items needed. Washer and dryer was very useful. We had plenty of towels. Looking forward to staying here again. Location was a perfectly close to train and shopping with a grocery and market on the otherwise of block. Drinking coffee overlooking the canal is very peaceful.
One suggestion would be to include usb charging plug-ins for travelers convenience.
