Machiya Oozora

The building was cute and had excellent facilities. There was a cute garden and beautiful bath.

Only thing is it’s like a 12-15 minute walk from the station but that’s not something to complain about. No complaints here.

Super authentic machiya in Kyoto! It was so peaceful and has lots of beautiful natural light. The bed was super comfy and we felt right at home!

I wasn’t aware of how much of a walk it is to the closest metro station. If you want to see a lot of downtown Kyoto or the temples, be prepared to take a taxi or do lots of walking!

La casa è davvero bellissima, ben fornita di tutto ill necessario e anche più. Lo staff è stato molto gentile e disponibile.

La posizione non è delle migliori per quanto riguarda lo spostamento delle valige, il servizio di deposito bagagli più vicino è alla stazione di Kyoto.

It was a very modern Ryokan with really good facilities (air conditioner, washing machine, bathtub that can be filled with just a press of a button). The team came to brief us the moment we checked in. They were very friendly and gave suggestions on where to view cherry blossoms. When one of my sons were sick, they even went out of their way to liaise with the paediatric clinic so that we can receive timely treatment. There were toys readily available for my children, which they really loved!

1. The stairs were stepped and slippery, and I fell from the stairs. This can be improved by putting anti slip rubber on each step of the stairs. 2. Even though the apartment appeared modern and generally clean, when you look in greater detail, there were spiderwebs at the corner, dust on the TV console and shelves. I feel that the cleanliness can be improved. 3. The toilet had no area to hang clothes or dry towels. 4. The location of this apartment is far from the train station / bus stop. It requires around 10 minutes walk in a rather quiet neighbourhood.
