THE BEST EXPERIENCE AND VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY in Kyoto!!! It was a beautifully renovated traditional style Kyoto lodging so accessible to everything near Gion and all the famous landmarks of Kyoto.
You get to experience staying in the Kyoto style house - every detail was well thought out with modern convenience even in the toilet room outside on the veranda. Lighting was beautifully used everywhere even in a tiny garden.
Everything was new and clean, modern in the inside and traditional on the outside. Efficient washer/dryer combo, rainfall shower AND a pot belly bath tub. You have both options for bedding - beds upstairs and futons downstairs on tatami. Best combination all around for a lodging in Kyoto.
In a country where they charge for a room by the number of people, this place was so reasonable for a family of 4. Highly recommend it!
P.S. LOVED the modern slippers with great arch support - we promptly ordered them on amazon.JP to bring them home!
