Great location, fantastic hosts
Stayed for 4 nights at Eime's place and could not have been luckier to have ended up here as I was very sick for the first day. Eime was wonderful about it (I probably created more laundry than any other guest) and took really good care of me beyond what you would expect from a hotel manager - offering extra mattresses and pillows, giving me fruit once I could eat again... This place feels more like a homestay than a hotel! Eime also offers many great tourism suggestions and maps to help you get around, in addition to interesting conversations on many topics! For the accommodation itself, our room was much bigger than it appears in the pictures. It is traditional japanese style (futon on tatami mat bed, and husk-filled pillows) - these aren't the most comfortable if you are used to western-style thick mattresses and fluffy pillows, but as noted above Eime does have extras that I'm sure you could use if you need it to sleep. There is no real kitchen to speak of, but you do have access to hot water, a microwave and a fridge for storing or preparing basic food. Eime also offers a 500yen western-style breakfast which is good and very filling (and slightly different each day). The washrooms are good and clean, and while there is only 1 shower I only had to wait for it once. The only downside is that the door we had has a ricepaper "window" section which made it not soundproof for things happening in the hall.

Very close to the famous tourist spots but quite at the same time. Close to bus stop. Room is clean and staff is friendly. Because it is an old Japanese style house, some inconvenience for us foreigners, but it gave us experience to try the Japanese style, which is also a part of our trip.

Good location and friendly host
Small homestay with a very friendly host. Good advices and documentation about what to see in Kyoto. Good location in the more beautiful part of Kyoto. Basic room japanese style with futon. TV / coffe / tea / washing / bathroom / toilet facilities are in a common room.

Location, Location and Like Home
If you are looking for the perfect location - closest to Kiyomizutera - and want a simple, clean, Japanese style place with an owner that is friendly and makes you feel at home - this is it. The location could not be more perfect. You are smack - 100 yards tops from one of the jewels of the world, in my humble opinion. Your initial cab driver from the station might have a bit of difficulty finding the exact location but this place allows you to wander the narrow alley like streets of of the hills that connect the Higashiyama side Shrines. If you go for change of leaves season - a ritual in the mid to late November - or what ever, this place is a slam dunk. Owner is nice, has a warm smile and an - what ever you need to be comfortable - attitude. Loved the room, clean, traditional Japanese mat and clean.

Mukava miljöö ja hyvä sijainti, vaikka ensimmäistä kertaa ilman älykännykkää tai tarkkaa karttaa hotellille meno voi olla haasteellista. Kysyvä ei tieltä eksy, joten paikallisen avustamana, vaikkakaan ei ihan suorinta reittiä, paikka löytyi.

大致上還不錯
民宿主人會英文,溝通算方便!因為訂較大的房間,所以安排在另外一個住宿地點,但不差!原本以為要爬坡住宿,但從五條板公車下來過馬路,大約走個五分鐘就到住宿的地方!五條板附近有便利商店,住宿地點旁邊也有販賣機。客廳也有水!房間也有無線上網,很方便!公共浴室乾淨!大體而言不錯!

Ryokan de bon rapport qualité prix
Maison d'hote très sympathique tenue par une dame très gentille et pleine d'énergie. Nous avons logé dans la chambre du dernier étage de l'annexe qui était la plus grande. Le futon était de confort moyen, mais il y avait un grand placard. Les parties communes sont spacieuses (salon + salle de bains). Lorsque l'auberge est complète, il faut bien s'organiser avec les autres convives pour les disponibilités des douches, car sans cela, ca peut rapidement être problématique. L'emplacement est très bien : proche du temple Kyomizu-dera et du quartier de Gion. Un arrêt de bus est situé à moins de 100 mètres.

近清水寺舒適的禢禢米日式民宿
周邊景點清水寺區位非常好,清水坂到八坂神社,祇園在步行距離內。但是搭地鐵或公車下車後需拉行李上坡一段路,旅館在巷子內地點不好找。不過傳統住家改的民宿非常舒適,禢禢米房間大,被子舒適柔軟,一樓只有三間房,共用一間浴室,兩間廁所,洗手台設在走道旁,很方便,不用等很久。還有一間小客廳供應茶水,還有電腦。房間有wifi速度快。由京都站搭206到五條坂下車,比地鐵近。搭公車前往祇園,平安神宮等景點也很方便。下次去仍會入住。
