This was one of our favorite places to stay in Japan. The host was very good at communicating. The home was very well laid out. It was very clean. They gave us a tour of the home when we arrived. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone who wants a great location in Kyoto.

Very clean, seems like it’s pretty newly renovated. 3 bathrooms / showers and 3 bedrooms. The host contacted us beforehand with the info and provided a photo of the actual address to share with a taxi driver. I think the taxi was about USD15 from Kyoto station. There are a couple of subway stations that are close but we had luggage etc.The host met us to show us in. It’s tucked away down an alley/narrow street. Quiet location, which was nice but not far from the bars and restaurants and Kyoto’s main sights. Very nice place, would stay here again.
