Papa and mama is very friendly to every visitors. I’m come to Kyoto without any itinerary plans and mama did told me which tourist spots to avoid and which is a must. If you love peace and calm you should definitely stay at here.

This is a great place with great people!
I got a lot of positive emotions from staying here!
Of course, you still have to understand that this is a place where you live together with other people, but here it is more of a plus than a minus!
The breakfast is delicious, there is an opportunity to give clothes for washing, convenient bus stations are nearby, you can take a bike.
Thanks Mama-san and Papa-san for a great time! I will be glad to come back here!

Very good host, warms the heart of the tired traveler. It is a warm experience to chat with friends at night. The host asked me which one is better, "Empresses in the Palace" or "Joy of Life". I laughed to death. Who will recommend it to me next time?

Mama and Baba are both extremely enthusiastic. When Mama takes the initiative to introduce and chat, she will also tell you that if you feel lonely, you can talk to her. In the evening, Mama's daughter has a birthday, and everyone will drink and chat together. The breakfast is extremely rich, and we can eat the only fruit in Japan. Baba will also hand-make postcards for each guest. In a word, it is really great~
