"Another fun property for my family. We were delightfully surprised at the coziness of the space. Had all the essentials we needed. The area itself is not too far from Shinsaibashi station but with that being said, a 20 minute walk is worth the sight of all the shops and stands along the way!"

"Be aware, do not book this place. It is a scam. Me and my friends booked this place and never got the keys to the building. When we arrived to the villa there were three other couples waiting outside as well that had booked the same villa for the night and did not get any keys either. When we called the phone number listed in the booking the number was not reachable. Efter waiting a long time we decided to give up and find another hotel. I still havent gotten any information from the personal."

"Excellent communication with staff that made check-in/check-out smooth. Nice kitchen and sleeping area. It was also nice to have an in-unit washer. It was the perfect stay for us to explore Osaka."

The layout and the atmosphere inside the hotel was phenomenal.
Excellent customer service. Keith and Amy went above and beyond and really made us feel welcome. They tried to accomodate our different schedule as well when they didn't have to and really took the time to speak with us. They added a great quality to the stay.

The staff was amazing. Extremely kind and informative. The property itself was clean, comfortable and convenient for it’s location. Couldn’t of asked for a better place to stay.

The selling point of this property is the sauna and outdoor baths. We didn’t end up using the sauna (it was 90 degrees outside) so we simply enjoyed the two baths. It was nice to do a load of laundry in the middle of our trip and while we only made tea, the kitchen was convenient and useful for folks staying longer. It’s a short walk to the station and close to many things. The house is very charming and would be perfect for a family.

An absolute gem in Kyoto!
We had a perfect stay here. The apartment is beautifully curated with a modern traditional Japanese aesthetic. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. The indoor garden in the shower area was a spectacular touch.
The location is unbeatable—walking distance to Gion and Nishiki Market, surrounded by fantastic dining options, and close to public transport (metro and buses).
Note: The stairs are a bit steep, so just watch your step.

Our stay at Ieno house was such a great experience. The staff was very polite and kind to explain about amenities and also there is an English manual on how to operate all the electronics. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. I would highly recommend this place.

The property was absolutely beautiful and very spacious for our family of four. The hot bath was a treat, especially since I have a lot of tattoos and don't want to offend locals in an onsen. (I know there are tattoo-friendly onsens, but I couldn't find any in the area we were staying.) The breakfast was a delicious spread of vegan cuisine. The washer/dryer was essential for our visit. Five stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I was such a beautiful place to stay! There was plenty of room, and plenty of pillows - rare in Japan! The decoration was very tasteful and welcoming. Staircase was a little narrow, but this is common in Japan and not a fault of the owner. There was only one toilet, which worked fine for our family of 4. Location was fabulous - easily walkable to Nara Park and the train station, and right on a busy walking street full of shopping and food, yet still quiet enough to rest at night. My only...

This is a very authentic machiya experience: tatami floors, futons rolled out on the floor, a deep soaking wooden tub, a historic building (it used to be a sake brewery). The machiya is in outstanding shape--cleanliness, modern amenities (wifi, AC, Japanese bidet).
(Note that part of the authenticity means no western beds, a steep traditional staircase up to the second floor, and the primary seating is also on tatami mats, so for those with mobility disabilities, it might not be the best...

My husband and I are 23F and 24M from the States. We loved our stay here! Beds were very comfortable, foot bath was amazing, and everything was very clean and nice. It was great having a washing machine, dishes, and many toiletries that most places don’t offer. Also, the host held our luggage after checkout since there was not anyone checking in that evening I assume, which was very nice! Not a big issue, but one thing I would recommend is adding another mirror. Maybe a full length one or one...
