    I loved the location and the proximity to the canal and walking area. The proximity to the subway helped offset concerns around being more out of the way as a less than 15 minute walk would take me to the subway.

    The amazing traditional Japanese home and wood working! The yard is amazing. It is in a quiet neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle in the main areas of Kyoto!

    I loved the house and the neighborhood. All of it was so beautiful. Right in the "backyard" is a nature walk so perfect if you love that. The futon was super confortable and the bed sheet extremely soft.
