As a family of artists, we really appreciated the atmosphere and traditional feel of the home. All amenities and conveniences mentioned by others are pretty accurate - close to train stations, clean home etc. I wanted to also add how charming the neighborhood is and how nice it was to come back to the quiet neighborhood for relaxation after a busy day. The shower pressure and hot heated bath were fantastic! What I will remember fondly is the snapshot of the beautiful Japanese maple tree visible through the glass doors while the family were gathered around the tea table.
Thank-you to Yuko and Ken for an unforgettable and lasting memory of the first leg of our trip.
