We stayed in Tokyo and Osaka prior to our stay here in Kyoto at Maeniiya Machiya Inn. Maeniiya Machiya Inn is a definite great place to stay and close to everything. Akemi (property owner) is a wealth of knowledge and gave a lot of tips and recommendations. Be sure to visit Sukemasa for dinner if you like Gyoza. It is very close and yummy for 1000yen! Thank you again for a wonderful stay. Sal and family

What an exquisite property this is! It was such a special experience to be able to walk down our very own Kyoto alley to our home away from home. The hosts were very communicative and spoke great English when we came to check in. Loved our stay!

Travelled with two teenage boys enjoyed the space very quiet living in a local neighbourhood good location to eateries. Only issue was the elderly neighbour who complained to us within the first 5 mins of arriving that we were too loud walking up and down the apartment stairs which was not great but overall was good location, good facilities very clean

We travelled as a family of 4 with 2 young adults. They thought it was real cool place. It had authentic character and we liked the tatami rooms and mats. We also liked that we had the place to ourselves. It felt liked we lived in Kyoto and walked in the back alley to our home. It was great to have more space than a hotel room. Good quiet central location and close to transit and those popular convenience stores. The experience here was memorable as much as sight seeing in Kyoto. Enjoyable!

It was so wonderful to stay in an authentic Kyoto machiya. The evenings were so quiet, with only the sounds of neighbours coming home and children playing. And the location is close to two major stations.

位置尚算方便，充滿日式風格，地方亦寬敞，唯床鋪比較軟，睡覺時不太舒服，整體感覺良好，亦會推薦給其他人入住
