A hidden treasure! Just like coming home ;)
I cannot say enough about Tsubame-ya, the guest house and staff were exceptional. I wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend. Personal, genuine welcome, with attentive staff, a real family feel. I felt like I'd been invited to stay in someone's home. We will definitely return to Tsubame-ya x

到着時に誰もおらず宿には入れないアクシデントはありましたが、スタッフさんも親切でこの価格なのにお風呂などの水回りも綺麗で良かったです。また機会があれば利用させていただきます。 気になった点はちょっとベッドルームが車の臭いっぽいにおいがして気になりました。 わんちゃんがかわいいです。

嵐山へ行くアクセス良好。 行った日に多くの人が宿泊しており、 1つのシャワーを浴びるのに１.５〜２時間かかったのが残念でした。 シャワーがあいたかどうか、わざわざ見に行かなければならなくて面倒でした。
