Samurai tei

Autentičnost, jako udobni kreveti.

Malo strme stepenice dok spavaće sobe.

We LOVED our stay here! We were here for 4 nights and although we wish it were longer, it was our favorite place that we stayed on our 2 week trip in Japan. Clean, stocked with everything you would need during a stay…the bathroom was so nice, the water pressure and toiletries in the shower was amazing! The beds were so comfortable and cozy! We were always excited to get into bed after a long day of exploring! Place is close to a lot of different things and a super short easy walk to a bus stop. There is a great little vegan cafe around the corner called SilverBacks…definitely check it out. I hope to come back to Kyoto again and hope to be able to stay here when I do come 💖💖💖

It was a large property with living space separate from sleeping. And it had a washer and dryer in unit.

The staircase was very narrow.

The apartment is as shown in the photographs. It is quite large, compared to a hotel, with good cooking and bathroom facilities. The kitchen was well equiped. The beds were comfortable, and there is a desk area able to accomodate 2 people. The washer/dryer works well, and there was soap of all kinds. The aparment is very quiet and within walking distance of Kiyomizu-dera. The apartment is convenient to the 206 bus running from the train station and a variety of other buses. The subway is a bus ride away. There is also a taxi stand a block away.

As others have noted, the stairs are very steep, but there is a banister and it was not a problem for us. The ground floor does not get much natural light. The bathroom is on the ground floor, while the bedroom is on the upper floor. The most challenging thing was finding the apartmment. From Higashi Street (the street the 206 runs along) turn east into Shibuya Dori. About 50 meters up Shibuya Dori on the left is a pedestrian alley. The apartment is down the alley with residences on both sides. The apartmentt has a blue flag over the entry with "Samerai Tei" on it. So once you find the alley, it's easy, but google maps isn't much good at showing the alley. There are restaurants in the immediate vacinity, but not a lot.
