A great traditional guest house for travellers! The host is very kind, the place is beatiful and warm. There is a nice common area on the ground floor where you can eat and chat with other guests. The place is very clean. It is located in Samegai, which is a very small town, with no noise and very calm. Quite easy to reach Kyoto from here. Great place!

We had this delightful traditional home all to ourselves. It was a classic Japanese style with modern amenities like bathroom and kitchen. A little sun porch overlooked the cute little garden. The communication with our host was excellent ( he spoke English) and he kindly transported us to and from the train station. We made good use of the bicycles provided and really got to explore everywhere from the lake to the city moat that winds through the old town. It was a great place to explore. We stocked up on groceries from a big supermarket a short bike ride away. We stayed 2 nights and loved every minute of it.

More than just a bed, I was able to find friends there and spend moments that I will remember for a long time. This place is full of kindness and I hit the road with a smile. If you are looking for rest, this is the perfect place. In his hostel, Jiro San offers decent places, games rooms, a very well-equipped kitchen, as well as a sauna hand made by the owner. You can even share a meal with your host if you offer ☺️

The couple who run the Inn are kind and hospitable. They were helpful in assisting me in all manners. Their charm was accompanied by the unique construction and style that decorate the establishment. Quite simply you must see it to appreciate it.

it was ok for one night. it'd been fine for a couple more nights too. it's self check in and there are instructions on how to open the door but I felt that maybe an initial explanation was needed like where the remote for the ac, the password for the wifi, etc. The host came later though and left quickly. it was generally clean.

Excellent stay at this beautiful guest house during our cycle around Lake Biwa! It's an absolute gem of a place. The property itself is very well maintained, with traditional features throughout (such as the tatami room and the Kotatsu in the living room). The owners were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had a comfortable stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would love to come back! Highly recommended.

A cheaper option to stay away from Kyoto City during peak autumn season if you are driving. Love the bath house and the well-equipped common kitchen. Staff is helpful. The property is clean.

The landlord is very devoted to his job and his guest house. At first look, he seems to be a serious person, but from the photos on the wall, one can see he is a man with stories. And also the landlord's wife is a great cook. The breakfast is just great. We had a very pleasant stay at guest house AN.

The host was nice. Everything was clean. Towels and some amenities were provided. The house is big and there are places to chill. The kitchen is very well equipped if you want to make your own food, just make sure to buy things before you get to the accommodation. There is no convenience stores or supermarkets around.
