wonderful homely place

This feels like you are in someone's home, in all of the good ways! Plenty of privacy, it's quiet, the room is bigger than expected AND there's communal space, a kitchen and shared showers/toliets, all very clean and well kept. Plus it's close to temples and gardens that you can explore early before the crowds.

バス停から徒歩10分以内でアクセスも程よく、二条城や金閣寺にバスで出やすかったです。 また、オーナーのご夫婦がとても感じがよく、帰り際に京都のオススメの回り方をご親切に教えてくださいました。 部屋やトイレ、シャワー室も、こじんまりとしていましたが、清潔感があり、居心地もよかったです。 泊まる前は値段が安かったので、少し不安だったのですが、とても満足でした。 また京都に来た時は是非利用させていただきたいです。
