8/10 Very good

家族旅行で滞在しました。 良い点としては、近くには商店街があり、バス、地下鉄、電車のアクセスも良いため、立地が良く、いろいろなところへ出かけやすいです。 また、居間、ダイニング、寝室、キッチンのほか、洗濯機や乾燥できる浴室もあったため、子連れで連泊するにも快適に滞在できました。 悪い点としては、古い住宅で通りからも近いため、人が歩いていたり、車が通ると音が気になりました。特に夜中に工事をしていたので、寝付けないこともあり、唯一マイナス点でした。 しかし、総合的には、主要な部屋にエアコンがついていたり、食器や自転車、傘も付いていたので、とても満足しており、料金的にもまた泊まる選択肢には入ると思います。

10/10 Exceptional

Great location family friendly

The house was nice traditional Japanese. The people at the rental office were very nice and helpful. You get a free taxi ride from their office to the rental house. The house is located 20 meters from Sanjo st. Which is a cover street with lots of restaurants and little shops. Also there is a grocerie store where u can get anything u need. It’s also a high traffic for bycicles. Nijo station is about 10 minutes walk. The house has 2 toilets one upstairs and one downstairs which is very convenient. We really didn’t use the kitchen since we ate out everyday but if want to cook you have all the necessary stuff to do so. Overall we had a great experience definitely we would stay there again.
