Tsukihi House Kyoto

Kyoto alone has nine taiyas with different styles to choose from. Although it is a century-old house, the equipment is quite new and has everything you need. Every room is of high quality and the house is in good condition🤩 We chose #つきひの家 which is about 90 square meters A two-story Japanese traditional building with a history of over 80 years As soon as you enter the door, you can see the large floor-to-ceiling windows and the Japanese garden. Sitting on the sofa is so inexplicably calming You can also take a bath in the open-air bath at night🛀 Waking up early in the morning and eating freshly baked bread turned into admiring the view from the window It’s so beautiful when the sun shines in🍁🌞🇯🇵

Four people stayed here for 1 night and 2 days in January. I tried to summarize the good and bad points, but the overall impression was that it was bad. I couldn't imagine using it a second time. *Good points Unlike inns with many private rooms, it's a detached house, so we had a great time with a large number of people. The inn is made of wood, so you can feel the warmth of the wood. There is an open-air bath, so I was able to take a relaxing soak without feeling hot. There is a garden and you can feel the ``Japanese'' atmosphere even from inside the inn. *bad place The first guide who came to greet us was so casual in his clothes, accessories, and hairstyle that I couldn't believe he was a guide at an inn. The website said there was a kitchen, so I went to buy some ingredients to make some snacks, but it was much smaller than I expected, and there was no stove or microwave. There was a sink, but there was just a kettle, coffee grinder, dripper, and tea bags in the space next to it, so it couldn't really be called a kitchen. Also, the coffee grinder had not been washed and there was a lot of dust and coffee grounds. Although it is a good old wooden inn, I was concerned that the door was poorly set up and wouldn't lock, and that it would rattle if there was even a slight breeze from outside. There were a lot of drafts, and even if I set the heating air volume and temperature to max, the room just got noisy and didn't warm up at all. Heating was only in the living room and bedroom, so I shivered in the cold as I took off my clothes, and even after warming up in the open-air bath, the water quickly cooled down. The only things that keep you warm are the open-air bath, underfloor heating, and a kettle with hot water. In the open-air bath, the bath stopper was so stiff that I wrapped the chain in a towel and pulled it with all my might to finally get it out. Also, no matter how many times I washed it, white dandruff-like dirt kept coming to the surface, which made me feel uncomfortable. The underfloor heating was sparsely hot and cold, so I often felt cold. There were times when I felt there were problems with the design, as some doors had no handles and were difficult to open, and all outlets were far away.
