"Lovely place to rest"

I always enjoy renting apartments in busy, tourist cities as it gives me a chance to be in a neighbourhood I would not otherwise get to see. This Machiya is no exception - the decor and furnishings are simple, but everything is very clean and functions perfectly. I especially appreciated the quick reference cards provided that helped navigate the controls for the bath, laundry and air conditioning units. A great experience - highly recommended.

We had a great stay at this house. It is lovley and very centrally located in Kyoto. It was perfect for our family of 3.

It was a pleasure to meet your sister. We had a good arrival and we were happy that we were welcomed so nice from your sister.

We enjoyed Kyoto with rain and sun and especially the famous cherry blossoms. Your Machiya is so charming. Your house is a great mixture of Japanese traditions and high-tech. We enjoyed the seating area in the living room with the great view into your lovely garden. It was a pleasure for us to sleep on futons. The bathroom with the Japanese high-tech was quite interesting and comfortable. At Friday morning we are going to leave.

Thank you very much for the nice time in Kyoto.
Best greetings
