“The traditional Japanese guesthouse, though a walk from the subway, proves worthwhile with its tatami rooms and immaculate, inviting bathrooms. Its proximity to Nishihongwanji Temple and local conveniences adds to the appeal; I particularly appreciate the manga room. A longer stay is definitely warranted to fully appreciate this authentic Kyoto experience.”
