Apartment vacation rentals in Lake Biwa

We loved our stay! There are lots of little things that make it feel like a home away from home. French press, extra blanket, coasters and placemats, pretty dishes. The details were lovely. We used the washer and drying rack - so nice to be able to do laundry. Cook top was easy to use. Great location close to the metro. The only suggestion I would have is to have a few suggestions of restaurants, cafes and grocery stores which makes it easier for newcomers to the city. When I asked, those were provided quickly.

Awesome place made the trip easy!

The flat is spacious. We have 2 large suitcases and can open it fully. The location is near the station, just 5 mins walk. It’s easy to find and check-in. The hosts also recommended us places to eat in Osaka. Highly recommend this.

The apartment was exactly as described. Everything was in order and clean. The area is quiet and walkable. There is a park in a walking distance and place for a workout.

The place was exactly as described. It was very close to the shin-Osaka station and very clean as a studio apartment with 2 separate beds. It also had a nice view on the 9th floor but the neighborhood was almost too quiet. Very little commercial activity on that side of the train station. But very easy to travel to the more fun areas.

It was my first time using Airbnb, but I had a very pleasant time! The owner handled it very nicely when I asked about something I didn't understand in advance. The place was very easy to find and conveniently located near the station. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and I had a pleasant time. It was helpful to have good appliances. I plan to stay in Osaka again, so I will stay here again in the future!!

This was one of our favourite Airbnb stays. To find a 46 sq m apartment in Kyoto during sakura season is amazing! Everything was so spacious and comfortable - exactly as described and identical to the photos on the website. Easily walkable to the metro and buses for sightseeing plus it is surrounded by supermarkets, restaurants and bars for eating. It was very quiet during the night so perfect for sleeping. May is a brilliant communicator, every aspect of our stay from check in to check out was clearly shared with us. Highly recommended as an option for Kyoto.

Special place tucked in a vibrant neighborhood.

Cute, clean and welcoming apartment that met all our needs and made staying in Kyoto most enjoyable

Spacious accommodation with walking access from subway stations located in a quiet neighbourhood

Home was lovely, clean and a 10min walk to kyoto station. April was a very kind and helpful host who made sure we were always looked after. Shout out to Hope and her game of chance! Very lucky 🙌🙌

Our fave place to stay in Kyoto, beautiful location, balcony overlooking a small river full of whimsical cherry blossoms in season. This historic building was originally a house where Geisha lived - small but cosy with everything you need, including a small kitchenette (fridge, microwave, kettle, toaster oven and double induction stovetop), laundry on the balcony (no dryer, hang clothes up to dry inside), separate toilet, shower n tub with plenty of hot water, toiletries n towels. We had 3 gals using it this visit. Futons in one room with table n chairs n the balcony with chairs too. A divider screen created 2 rooms. There is some street noise - be understanding and keep yours to a minimum too. Situated perfectly, close to restaurants and bars, convenience stores, bus stops, a few minutes walk to Yasaka shrine and the shopping area and Gion (the Geisha district). Hosts very friendly n accommodating. Stay here frequently and recommended to friends who loved it too. Such a great spot!

Lovely place well located in Osaka. Great local bakery in the r market and a 7-11 just around the corner. Nice little touches in the property and good sized bedrooms and kitchen/lounge area. Would highly recommend!

Cozy place conveniently located at walking distance to Shin-Osaka station. Good spot when traveling through.

We stayed in the Gion House Upper Level and it was a great home away from home in Kyoto. The location is perfect: the street it's on is calm and private but it is just a few minutes walk away from many great restaurants in a charming old district of Kyoto. The house maintains the aesthetic of a past era while incorporating a small modern kitchen and a tidy bathroom. There are two bedrooms, one with a comfortable western-style bed and one in Japanese style on the floor, both with nice white bedding. Curtis and team were great to work with and very helpful and responsive when needed. This is a great spot to feel like you live in Kyoto!

Overall an amazing stay. We needed a spot that we could stay and keep our things- we didn’t spend much time there outside of sleeping there. Location was perfect and Host was very helpful.

Loved staying here, Taiyo’s family was so friendly and sweet. Was very helpful and I was also able to luggage forward to my next hotel as she called Yamato transport so they could pick up my luggage. Room was very spacious and had everything I needed. Would highly recommend and next time I’m in Kyoto I would definitely stay here again!!

We stayed at Masako's place for a month and had a great time. The house is spacious (by Japanese standards) and had a nice view of the mountains. The kitchen was small but sufficient for basic cooking. The neighbourhood was quiet and peaceful with many amenities nearby. The free bicycles provided by Masako was a great bonus too. All in all great value for money for someone who does not wish to stay right in the city centre and don't mind abit of a walk to the train station (we loved the stroll).

Very friendly host. The train station was only 2 min away, which was perfect to get anywhere quickly. Everything in the place was very clean and there was everything you could need. My son and I were very satisfied.

The place was great ! Clean and full of amenities. He also had a booklet of recommendations of places around the area and also instructions on how to use the things in the house. Great overall !

Host was great. Very responsive and proactive. The location was great due to being next to two stations.

Convenient location and clean room☺️

Very Accessible place in Kyoto right near the famous Toji temple grounds. It had all the amenities for a comfortable stay. Bus stop is just a minute walk from the stay and this made our travel in the city super convenient.

I absolutely loved staying here. was very comfortable resting and they're bathroom/onsen design is amazing. my only caution is the entrance is a little tight upon entering. otherwise. well worth staying. relatively close to everything you'd want to do. shopping, temples, train station. etc
