Homely and pleasant in Kyoto

With few rooms and a common kitchen (which is very well organized) it's easy to get in contact with other travellers. The rooms are traditional and smells cozy of fresh tatami mats. The guesthouse is located in a nice area with low houses. 20 minutes to walk from the train station.

Ohk...but won't stay gain.

well the hotel has notice boards everywhere...don't do this ...don't do that. Feels like in school. Also the owner was kinda annoying. Coffee and breakfast is just slice of bread with Jam. which too was over only half of our party could do the breakfast. World cafe which claims to give you 50% off to Yahata guests is also not nearby...quite a walk. You can't do that with your luggage. Check in is only from 4 to 9 pm not anytime after 4 pm which was a bummer since we had to leave our dinner half way to rush for checkin because owner wasn't ready to adjust.

Fair, reasonable

It's just enough to stay and spend nights. You can't expect lots, but far better than shelterless. You can have a shower, sleep in a room with air conditioner, have a slice of bread in the morning with coffee. You can also get some information about Kyoto in English.

服務一流

酒店位置在四条口, 民居入面, 入住旅客最好出發前找好地圖, 否則容易迷路。亦因如此, 食肆的選擇比較少也不太適合夜貓子。 如其說酒店, 不如說更近似男子宿舍, 而且是正宗的日式房子, 隔音不太好, 四人共處一室, 加上周邊的設施, 所以不要期望有什麼夜晚活動了。但其親切的客戶服務, 可用simple english溝通, 再加上200元不到的價錢, 對想投入一下日本人居住方式的背包客, 或者只要求廉價住房的人, 是莫大的福音。

Authentic Japanese Gem

Small traditional Japanese house owned by a gentle couple. Friendly helpful owners with fluent English. Carefully prepared travel info provided. My husband and I had a private tatami room, it was big enough to fit four people. Slightly far from the local subway station, but a 10min walk through safe quiet neighborhood is acceptable (midnight also fine). Highly recommend to travel through Kyoto by bus. Their subway is a big mess and a lot of walking involved.

Very nice staff

I enjoyed my stay at Guesthouse Yahata. It has affordable price with clean rooms. The hotel is located in a very quite neighborhood. It was fun for me to experience tatami the first time. The owner is a very nice lady. She planned a one-day trip agenda with beautiful attractions while I was there. Also, I accidentally left my glasses while I was leaving to Tokyo. It was very kind of her to offered to mail it to my new hostel. Overall, I highly recommend this place.

Great cheap alternative to a hotel

Guesthouse owner and his wife were so kind and accomodating. I traveled to Kyoto in the off season, so I had the guesthouse pretty much to myself, which was nice. Also, you get the chance to meet other travelers while you stay here, which is always fun as a foreign person in a country. I highly recommend this place and will definitely go back when I return to Kyoto
