★★★★ 9.8 (100 reviews)

"The location is near to bus stops and train station which allowed us to take the bus / train conveniently to all places of interest. It is within a quiet neighbourhood. Convenient stores are within walking distance. Sleeping rooms are in upper floor. Difficult to bring large luggage upstairs. We did laundry and the washing facilities are well equipped. We reached early before check in time and the owner allowed us to keep all luggages inside so that we can continue our sightseeing 👍🏻 We had a broken luggage that needs to be thrown away but we didn’t know how to throw it since Japan has strict rules on garbage disposal. Luckily the owner was kind enough to help us 👍🏻"

★★★★★ 9.9 (27 reviews)

""The lights of the palace reflect the stars, and the sound of fireworks is generously presented to the world. Books have not concealed the wanderer's thoughts, and the courtyard still remembers the songs of old friends." This small house hidden in the streets of Kyoto shows the warmth in the poem. Six of us gathered here. In the morning, we opened the window to see the moss and pine trees in the courtyard. At night, the hot pot mist was filled with the sound of playfulness. The moonlight flowed through the gaps in the curtains. In a trance, we couldn't tell whether we were staying at home or returning home. The extremely elegant landlord not only took good care of us when we checked in, but also sent local snacks as a welcome. He also came to say goodbye when we left. These two encounters were as warm as old friends. On the day of departure, we wrote in our hearts: "Three dreams of the palace, only a courtyard of spring". If you yearn for not only a place to live, but also a time for laughter to take root and memories to sprout, here is the answer."

Sakuraya・Akagane Kyoto Station Japanese Style Villa ★★★★
"The street is very quiet, and it is a completely residential area. You can visit Toji Temple in 5-10 minutes' walk. It is very convenient to take the city bus. Supermarkets and JR are within 10-15 minutes' walk. Uber and go taxi can pick you up directly. The overall experience of living in front of the house is great. The landlord is very kind and will help introduce fun and interesting places at that time. The bathroom is separated from wet and dry, with two and a half toilets and a shower room. When a large family lives together, they can be used separately in the morning. , the living room area is great, we will stay in the living room for a while in the morning to have breakfast together before going out for our trip!"

Sakuraya・Touji Kyoto Station Japanese Style Villa ★★★★
"A very cozy little building, clean and tidy, very suitable for traveling with children. Downstairs is the functional area and upstairs is the rest area. The two rooms upstairs are all tatami mats, so you don’t have to worry about your children rolling out of bed. It’s so worry-free. It’s only a five- to six-minute walk to Toji Station and one stop to Kyoto Station. It’s very convenient to get some peace and quiet in the midst of the hustle and bustle. It's a pity that I couldn't take photos of any rooms with my baby, but I will choose this place next time I come to Kyoto! !"

HOKUKOU KAMIMIYA ★★★★★
"The living experience is very good! Japanese-style decoration, environmentally friendly and comfortable. The interior decoration design is very charming, there is also a washing machine with dryer and a professional and easy-to-use kitchen. You can buy some semi-finished products in the nearby supermarket to cook. The boss and his wife are warm and attentive. According to the information they provided, we visited the local home furnishing store and bought a lot of good things at a good price. This store is suitable for staying for a few more days, and it really gives people a "home away from home" feeling! It is said that there is a natural hot spring nearby, and we heard that it is a Japanese bathing method, so we didn't dare to go."
