The WORST experience ever. The location of this place in Kyoto was great, and we didn’t mind the quiet rules, but the strictness felt excessive. However, the real issues started with basic amenities. They provided only one roll of toilet paper for a family of five and insisted it was our fault for not reaching out sooner—essentially telling us to go buy our own. Which we ended buying. Detergent was also promised but not provided, so we had to purchase that as well. The worst part was the check-in process. We had informed the host that we’d be arriving a little later and even double-checked if they needed anything from us—fees, details, or an entry code. They assured us that everything was set. But when we arrived, we were locked out in the cold because they required a fee before giving us the code—something they never mentioned earlier when our family reached out previously through Hotels.com. They ignored our calls for almost an hour before finally answering, only to demand payment before letting us in. Overall, the lack of communication, missing supplies, and being left outside in the cold made this a frustrating stay. Would NOT recommend. ##### KENNY Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ernesto 29 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Was a great stay but need to be more clear on options for accommodation fee or be more flexible with it.

Bei uns gab es jedoch Probleme bei der Zustellung des Türcodes. Da wir diesen nicht per Mail erhalten haben, mussten wir anrufen. Das ist in Japan als Ausländer nur mithilfe von Einheimischen möglich, da man mit der e SIM nicht telefonieren kann. Wir haben jedoch dann direkt jemanden erreicht, der uns den Türcode durchgegeben hat. Der Onsen war ziemlich staubig und man konnte nicht wie auf den Bildern in den Garten gucken. Nichtsdestotrotz würden wir die Unterkunft empfehlen, da sie ruhig gelegen und schön eingerichtet ist. ##### Cora Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 27 Sept 2024 Liked: Room comfort, communication 매력적인 일본 전통 다다미 가옥이라 이틀 숙박했습니다 첫날에 집의 아늑함에 반하고 편하게 자고 다음날 일어나보니 1층 거실바닥에 검정개미가 드글대서 깜짝 놀랐습니다 오래된 목조 주택이라 그런건지 위생 관리가 안되서 그런건지는 모르겠지만 다다미 바닥에서 끝도없이 나오는 개미는 꼭 해결하셔야 할거같아요 쿄토 여행하면서 교통이 편리한 위치는 절대 아니나 다다미 주택을 독채로 쓰는 매력에 좋은 경험으로 남아있습니다 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 27 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### 추천합니다. 가족여행으로 왔는데 좋은 가격과 좋은 숙소였습니다. 다음에도 이용할 것 같습니다. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### わかな 25 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication 清潔で過ごしやすくチェックインアウトもスムーズで良かったです ##### わかな Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### POUPIN 30 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### POUPIN Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ---
