Monthly Rentals in Sakyo Ward

Obviously Jinn has a lovely home, but he is also an extremely gracious host. He was available to answer any and all questions and made us feel right at home in his space. The location is a serene and peaceful neighborhood which allowed us to enjoy parts of Kyoto we otherwise would have missed, while still being close to main attractions. I would recommend anyone to stay here, amazing experience.

Loved my stay at this beautiful machiya in Kyoto. It felt like living as a local, both at home and the nearby surroundings. The bedroom is bright and beautiful, the wooden onsen with garden view is the perfect way to wind down in the evening. If you decide to stay here make sure to do the soba workshop as early as possible in your stay, it will come with useful local recommendations and way to experience the friendly and warm nature of the Japanese culture. One of the best Airbnb I ever stayed in. Will go back if I’ll have the chance.

Very nice area to stay in, lots of good restaurants nearby and was very easy to get around using the provided bicycles. The room had all the amenities listed and felt very traditional.

Staying at Asami and Daniel's place was honestly the highlight of my whole trip. After being collected and escorted from the train station to the apartment, I was given bits of history about the neighbourhood and recommendations for food by Daniel. Upon arrival Asami greeted me and showed me how to use some of the more confusing amenities which was really helpful. I took them up on some of their suggested sightseeing and definitely wasn't disappointed, a stunning trek up Mt Kurama was my first pick. During my entire stay both were extremely kind and conscientious and shared so much knowledge with me, giving me a small peek into the lives of the locals. When leaving the city to head to Osaka, I was very kindly escorted back to the train station and send a message when I got home safely. Kyoto will definitely be the city I come back to on my next visit to Japan and staying with Asmai and Daniel again would be a treat!
