Stayed with partner

We stayed here 1 night for easy access to Nintendo Museum. Check in is 4pm and our reservation was 4.30, so we were worried it'd be a bit tight. We let the host know and the team were great at getting us checked in quickly and smoothly and set up for our museum trip. Honestly we're a bit sad we only stayed 1 night! It feels like staying in someone's house and the local neighborhood is quiet but still has restaurants and shops nearby. Walking along the canal in the morning we had a lovely chat with a local. Wish we'd stayed more than 1 night so that we could get a feel for Ogura, which is close to Kyoto and Osaka, but still feels like staying where people live. Lovely little find this!

We enjoyed the large traditional Japanese room, comfortable futon beds, and the nice conversations with the owners. It's on a little street conveniently located 10 mins from Ogura station. Clean room, friendly staff, reliable WiFi, etc. Ticked all the boxes.

Owners and staff were extremely helpful, especially when using the luggage forwarding. Use of common area is perfect for buying groceries and making own food ( There is a 24 hr grocery store nearby). The rooms are beautiful, abeit the walls are thin. it does not deter from staying here and would recommend for anyone wanting the old feel with updated features.It is also conveniently close to 2 train stations. which makes transit relatively easy.

Are you kidding ? 12000 yen charged for such a small space ? I will never comeback ! I guess Kyoto is a tourism polluted place which customers like me getting overcharged

Uji Tea Inn, was a genuine experience of staying in a ryokan home. The receptionist Kassawa was very welcoming and helpful. Place was very clean. Although a little far from Kyoto centre, the area was quiet and safe.

It's an inn. Service was great even when we came too early for check in. We had to wait for someone to come by to help us with our luggage before we checked in. That was great. We got to explore Kyoto for a bit before we settled into our room. Nice and clean. Loved our first experience in a tatami mat sleeping area. Bathroom was amazing even though there is no soaking tub. Shower was fantastic. Far walk from subway if you have heavy luggage to roll and lug behind you. If that is not an issue, then you are good to stay here. The place had an old charm to it, but the room you may stay in is new and beautiful.
