The owner is very approachable, he goes the extra mile of asking how we are and offering a space for our luggage in case we would want to leave it if we need to travel around the area. Breakfast is available free of charge -toasts, cherry tomatoes and spreads. Coffee and tea is always available as well. Japanese breakfast is offered for an extra charge but we did not avail it. Room amenities were complete as well, there even is an extension available.

I really enjoyed my stay here! Location is in a residential area, making it a quiet respite after a whole day of sightseeing, while still being conveniently close to the center. Breakfast was also tasty and kindly brought into the room daily. Emiko-san and her family were very welcoming and accommodating. She even gave me a ride to Kyoto Station on my last day and always checked on me daily to see how I was. Very kind family. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit!

The guesthouse is beautifully decorated and mostly self-built by the host couple. They offered a free welcome drink and we could play pool for free. The rooms are anime themed which also was pretty cool. The host couple was very welcoming and helpful. They really went out of their way for us.
