Mama & Papa are the kindest hosts ever! They made the trip in Japan so much worthwhile! It is one of the best hostels I've stayed in mostly because of Mama & Papa! They really make you feel at home, and you get to experience the whole Japanese culture :)). Lovely! Definitely recommend and will for sure stay with them again when I'm in Kyoto! Cheers to you both 😃

My best choice that I take this guest house during my travel! Mama and Papa were super nice and all the things in this house was totally Japanese (also very clean and comfortable!!). I’ll come here again when I travel in Kyoto next time ♡

I really like this place. I mingled with Mana Baba just a few minutes after I arrived. The only thing I don’t like about Japan is that it’s too quiet and doesn’t talk. But when I get here, it’s like I’m at home. I can open up the conversation box and chat. Dad likes to adjust the atmosphere. They grow tea for us to drink, and my mother makes a very rich breakfast. Unlike other places, we like to sit in the living room and chat as soon as we get home after playing outside for a day. We like it very much. I will stay here again when I come to Kyoto in the future.

The B&B has a very nice atmosphere. It feels like home. Papa and mama provide a lot of help. Mama will help with the laundry and fold it for you. Papa will write a red seal for each guest. The calligraphy and painting are great.

A very, very recommended place. It was my first time to stay in this type of B&B, and it was a very strange experience to chat with people from all over the world at night. The room decoration is also very beautiful, and mama is very welcoming.

It's best. A friendly mama connects people staying at the hotel. You are good at English too. But it's very clean and has everything you need, including a refrigerator. Breakfast is also provided. Papa is also kind. He also drew a caricature. I will go again next time!!!
