The staff is super kind and helpful, the property is very pretty and everything is very typical. There are two onsens available for the guests (a male one and another for women) with very good conditions. We could opt from a japanese breakfast and a continental breakfast, so we chose the first one. Super complete and with a lot of dishes, if you haven’t tried and are ok with trying different food types, you definitely should go for the japanese breakfast. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable.

This stay is perfect, I'll say it's definitely the best one in my trip. The interior design is full of Kyoto style and I love the way they offer you the room key!!! They provide a laundry room also and I have a small balcony outside my room. In addition, the room got the biggest size in Japan I've ever seen! Really chill and relax! The environment is quiet and saft, I love walking in the valley in Kyoto!!!
